Breathtaking Results: What You Helped Us Achieve

A breath of fresh air.

Feldman Family Foundation and the American Lung Association Unite

We’re excited to share that our partnership with the American Lung Association (ALA) in the fight against pulmonary fibrosis has already reached its first milestone. At the 11th Annual Irv Feldman Texas Hold ’Em Tournament, Danielle Trojenik, Executive Director of Greater Chicago ALA, joined us to represent this partnership and celebrate the progress we are making together.

Together, we have created the Learning to Live with PF workbook—a comprehensive resource designed to support patients, families, and caregivers affected by pulmonary fibrosis. This achievement marks an important step forward in our shared mission, and we look forward to the progress still to come.
