Scott Mackler waged a courageous battle with ALS for well over 15 years. Sadly the manifestations of Lou Gehrig's disease ended his brilliant research career on November 19, 2013.

Even though Scott's compassionate spirit and humanitarian efforts will be sorely missed, his philanthropic contributions to all PALS (person with ALS) will continue to live on in his absence through his Scott Mackler's Assistive Technology Program.

Over the years, there has never been an ALS patient in the Greater Philadelphia & Tri-State area that has gone without communicative technology for want of money. Your participation can continue this success and provide life-altering support to help those who need it most.
