Spreading Awareness in Our Local Community

At Brothers On A Quest, we are committed to raising awareness about Ataxia and AOA2 within our local community. We achieve this through a variety of impactful activities and initiatives:

  • Community Events: Hosting events such as charity golf tournaments, free shred events, and informational sessions to engage the public and share information about Ataxia.

  • Educational Campaigns: Partnering with local schools, businesses, and community organizations to provide educational materials and presentations about Ataxia and its impact.

  • Social Media Presence: Utilizing social media platforms to share stories, updates, and important information about Ataxia, reaching a wider audience and fostering a supportive online community.

  • Advocacy Work: Participating in local chamber of commerce meetings, health fairs, and other community gatherings to advocate for Ataxia research and support.

  • Collaboration with Local Media: Working with local newspapers, radio stations, and television channels to feature stories and interviews that highlight our mission and the importance of Ataxia research.

Through these efforts, we aim to not only inform but also inspire our community to join us in our quest to find a cure for Ataxia and support those affected by this rare neurological disease.

Join the Movement

Please join three brothers on a quest to discover a cure for ataxia, the worst disease you have NEVER heard of, by donating today. 

Ataxia with Oculomotor Apraxia Type 2 (AOA2) is a rare neurological disease. For families, such as ours, who are affected by it, life is never the same. Unfortunately, AOA2 tends to begin in late adolescence, leaving kids unable to drive, walk, write, and handle their own basic daily needs. Common symptoms include balance problems, tremors, loss of motor skills, double vision, and muscle weakness.

We remain optimistic about the future, thanks to Brent Fogel, M.D., Ph.D. who is determined to find a cure. He is the only clinician-scientist in the world researching new ways to treat AOA2.

Dr. Brent Fogel is the Director of the UCLA Neurogenetics Clinic and a member of the UCLA Ataxia Center. He is leading a multi-year research study to develop a groundbreaking gene therapy that has the potential to stop the progression of this disease.  

Your financial support is critical, as this research is only funded by philanthropic support. 

Thank you for your generosity! Every dollar makes a difference.
