Driving 4 Life
Driving 4 Life is a golf based fundraising campaign for ALS Therapy Development Foundation. It is supported by professional golfer Tom Watson in memory of Bruce Edwards, his former caddy, and of Jeff Julian, a fellow PGA member. Both Bruce (April 2004) and Jeff (July 2004) died from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Driving 4 Life is a national fundraising campaign to fund ALS research and education. The campaign is committed to funding researchers and health service providers that believe in open source communication and collaboration into the development of effective treatments and ultimately a cure for ALS.
The campaign has raised more than $5 million since it was started at the 2003 US OPEN.
