Home renovations often become necessary following a Lou Gehrig’s disease diagnosis. As part
of the Live Like Lou Foundation’s commitment to
meaningfully support families affected by ALS,
we proudly offer one-time grants to complete
projects in and around the home to ensure safety,
independence, and/or quality of life.
We are proud to have awarded $50,000 in
home improvement grants last year to 30 ALS
families. These funds are made possible by the
generosity of our donors and friends. Read on to
learn more about how the funds were used.
