The Hugh and Herbert Hoffman ALS Impact Fund

Hugh Hoffman was a Cincinnati native who passed away in March 2023 at the age of 91. When he was 11, Hugh lost his father, Herbert, to ALS, which is still a fatal disease without a cure. Hugh wanted to ensure that families in the future will not have to lose their loved ones to ALS.

Crowd of people with ALS

The Hugh and Herbert Hoffman ALS Fund will profoundly impact the lives of people living with ALS and their loved ones, advancing the ALS Association’s goal of making ALS livable until there is a cure. The fund is designated to advancing promising ALS therapies, developing new or strengthening existing ALS clinics, and enhancing access to ALS care for people living with ALS. It will specifically fund three programs in the areas of ALS research and care:
