Jim "Catfish" Hunter ALS Foundation

The Jim "Catfish" Hunter ALS Foundation is sometimes confused with our Chapter but is a seperate non-profit organization based in Hertford, North Carolina. The Foundation was formed in 1999 by Jim "Catfish" Hunter, his family and friends and the Bear Swamp-Beech Springs Ruritan Club.

The Foundation is a proud supporter and partner of The ALS Association - Jim "Catfish" Hunter Chapter, providing the start up funding necessary to get key Chapter programs in place, such as Respite Care and Augmentative Communication Grants.

The Foundation also works to support research and provide grants based on need to families living with and fighting ALS. Through events such as softball tournaments and the Walk to D'Feet ALS, the Foundation works diligently to provide for all PALS.
