The mission of Samantha's Friends, a non-profit organization, is to help individuals challenged by disabilities such as autism, stroke, combat injuries, and other catastrophic illnesses, gain independence and companionship with the assistance of a service canine.
Samantha's Friends was originally founded in 1996 by Eddie Perley as a fundraiser for Samantha Bozza, who suffered a brain aneurysm caused by an arteriorvenus malformation, or hemorrhage, in her brain when she was only 15 years old.
After a close encounter with death and many years of rehabilitation, Samantha now reaches out to help and inspire individuals in all walks of life with her kind, generous and enthusiastic spirit.
In 2004, Samantha was honored as the very first recipient of the "Woman of Achievement Award" in the state of Florida and was also named a "Woman of Excellence" for 2005-2006, in honor of her work helping others.
Although Samantha currently owns and operates a "Curves for Women" workout facility in Florida, her true passion is her foundation "Samantha's Friends" created in her honor.
The Foundation of the American Thoracic Society (ATS) is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization established in 2004 to raise funds for the ATS Foundation Research Program. As the Foundation has grown and expanded, it has added three additional program areas to its grant making portfolio: MECOR (Methods in Epidemiologic, Clinical and Operations Research) courses; ATS Assembly Projects in pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine, and clinical education and training initiatives. Together these programs are central to the ATS's mission: the prevention and treatment of respiratory disease through research, education, patient care and advocacy.
Led by its Chairman, James F. Donohue, MD, Professor of Medicine, Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine, University of Carolina at Chapel Hill, the Foundation depends on the financial support of individuals, corporations and foundations for its success. Among the Foundation Trustees are scientists, clinicians, and representatives of industry and patient advocacy organizations.
The Foundation welcomes expressions of interest and financial support, regardless of size of gift. We hope you will consider making a generous contribution. Your gift will empower the Foundation to fulfill its mission to "improve the quality of life for patients, their families and communities worldwide".
