Feldman Family Foundation and the American Lung Association Unite

We’re excited to announce our partnership with the American Lung Association (ALA) in the fight against pulmonary fibrosis. Danielle Trojenik, Sr. Director for Midwest ALA, represented this partnership at our 11th Annual Irv Feldman Texas Hold 'Em Tournament, joining us to raise awareness and make a meaningful impact. This partnership marks a significant step forward in our shared mission, and we are excited for the progress we will make together.
