Bright Side of the Road
Barry Winovich, his family, and his friends founded the Bright Side of the Road Foundation in 2006 soon after Barry’s diagnosis with ALS (Lou Gherig’s Disease). The goal of this group is clear: to marshal energy and resources to help find a cure for this devastating disease.
Bright Side of the Road is made up of many concerned members of the community, who together have, and are, organizing exciting events to further our cause. The foundation is incorporated in the State of Ohio and is organized exclusively for charitable and, more importantly, scientific purposes as defined in Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code.
The mission of the Bright Side of the Road Foundation is to:
- Make grants to support activities and projects relating to the causes, prevention, treatment and cure for ALS such as specific research, drug trials and other medical and/or scientific programs identified as relevant.
- Also, we want to support other organizations whose purpose is to raise awareness, educate patients, families, caregivers and the general public about ALS.
