When Tristan Lennox (nickname: Lenny) found out that his grandfather, Charles Richard Wall, had been diagnosed with the terminal disease ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease) he immediately had the idea that he wanted to do something to show his love and support for his Grandpa…who was always his biggest fan.
So, together, he and his parents came up with the idea to start a charitable foundation that could raise money for ALS but also not be limited to helping victims and families impacted by ALS.
