The Amy Alexander Foundation for Spinal Cord Injury was started in 1994 by Elaine Golden, a math teacher in upstate New York. Elaine began the foundation when a former student of hers, Amy Alexander, sustained a spinal cord injury from a car accident that left her paralyzed from the neck down.
With annual fundraisers and private donations, the foundation has grown large enough to benefit others with spinal cord injuries as well as Amy. The foundation is striving to grow substantial enough to help individuals with more costly needs such as home modifications, wheelchair equipped vehicles and physical therapy. The more fund raisers we have and the more private donations we receive, the more people we can reach.
All donations made to the Amy Alexander Foundation are tax deductible, and 100 percent of the donations go to an individual with a spinal cord injury.
