Help for Today…Hope for Tomorrow
30th Anniversary
Dear Friends,
The Challenge – We are at the crossroads of
discovery. We believe that the tools to find a cure for ALS
exist. For the last thirty years, we have helped our ALS
families lead richer, better lives while searching for a cure for
this disease. Today we are partnering with the government
and other healthcare organizations to speed up this process.
The Greater Philadelphia Chapter owes its accomplishments
to pioneers like Malvina and Morton Charlestein, organizations
like the Phillies, families like the Bartones and patients like
Kevin Glenn, all of whom we will meet in the next few pages.
Of course, they did not do it alone. Thank you for being the
source of their hope…hope for a world free from ALS.
Our doors are always open. Your practical ideas, your intelligent input, your resourcefulness and
your contributions are what make The Greater Philadelphia Chapter so successful. Together, we
will meet our challenge with a victory.
Sincerely,
Ellyn C. Phillips, President
James V. Pinciotti, Executive Director
The mission of The ALS Association, Greater Philadelphia Chapter is to lead the fight to cure and
treat ALS through global, cutting-edge research, and to empower people with Lou Gehrig’s
Disease and their families to live fuller lives by providing them with compassionate care
and support.

FAMILIES MAKING
A DIFFERENCE
Morton and Malvina Charlestein were not ones
to let grass grow underfoot –when their son-in-law, Alan
Phillips, was diagnosed with ALS in 1982, they immediately
mobilized and became involved with the ALS cause. When
ALS took Alan’s young and vital life in1984, left behind
were his wife, Ellyn, and three-year old daughter, Amy.
Ellyn assumed the position of Chapter President and in
December 1984, her mother, Malvina, sprang into action. She
met with Nancy Giles, wife of then Phillies President Bill Giles
and said, “ALS belongs in baseball. Won’t you help? After all,
it is also called “Lou Gehrig’s Disease.” Nancy took Malvina’s
message to Bill and the rest is history. Later that year, the
Chapter became the team’s principal charity, and $28,000
was raised to to fight
Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
Malvina and Morton Charlestein attend the Annual Luncheon.
Since 1984, a total of $9.4 million has been raised by the Phillies for the Chapter.
Morton and Malvina became involved with a group of dedicated soldiers. These
included The Chapter’s Founder Felice Wiener, Dorothea Behr, and Terri and
Howard Abrams, with whom they established the Philadelphia Friends of ALS
–the Chapter’s first fundraising arm. Ed Lazar and Ben and Dottie Ohrenstein
were also invaluable early contributors, creating what was to become the most
successful ALS Association Chapter in the nation.

In 2002, our Chapter
reorganized and Jim Pinciotti became the first Executive
Director. Jim leads a team of dedicated professional staff who,
along with thousands of ALS volunteers, has changed the face
of the Chapter from its grassroots beginnings into the National
ALS Association’s “Chapter of the Year” in 2002, 2003, 2004,
2005 and 2007.

FAMILIES MAKING A DIFFERENCE
The Lea R. Powell ALS Patient Services Program
People with ALS (PALS) are our first priority. Through the generosity of all our contributors, we proudly offer the
most comprehensive patient services program in the country, free of charge to PALS and their families. Over
the past year, our patient services staff has provided an array of educational, recreational, patient care, family
assistance, and outreach programs.
patient care
ALS Certified Clinics: We are proud to provide cutting-edge medical care
at two multidisciplinary ALSA-certified clinics. At each center, patients and
caregivers are seen by a neurologist, registered nurse, physical therapist,
occupational therapist, speech pathologist, registered dietitian, mental
health nurse, respiratory therapist, assistive technologist, physiatrist,
gastroenterologist and social worker. Additional specialists such as a
pulmonologist are available for consultation. Pastoral care has also been
integrated into the Hershey Clinic. Over the past year, there were 710 visits
to the ALS Association Certified Center at the Penn Comprehensive
Neuroscience Center at Pennsylvania Hospital and 455 visits to the
PALS Paula Watts with Mary Kelley, MSN, RN, CRNP at
the ALS Association Center at Pennsylvania Hospital.
ALS Clinic at Penn State-Hershey Medical Center.
Affiliate ALS Treatment Centers: We also provide support for two additional clinics in our service region. One is at the
Lehigh Valley Hospital and one at the Geisinger Medical Center.
assistance
In the advanced stages of ALS, the costs related to the disease can skyrocket.
To help relieve some of the expense to families, the Chapter provides assistance
with in-home care, equipment lending programs, home accessibility solutions
and transportation free of charge to patients living in our service area.
Home care: The Chapter offers three programs to help patients living at home
and their families. The Howard I. Abrams In-Home Care program funds
2-14 hours of regular weekly care for patients living at home. Additional programs
provide relief for family members who serve as full-time caregivers to a relative
with ALS. These respite care programs offer caregivers 72 hours of respite
per year for non-ventilator patients, or 96 hours per year for ventilator-dependent
Howard I. Abrams
patients. A total of 61 patients received respite care in FY 2008, and we
provided 34,236 hours of home health care through the Abrams In-Home
Care Program.
4
Equipment lending programs: Our lending programs
provide expensive medical and communication
equipment to patients. The Marjorie Shimer Equipment
Loan Program loaned over 604 items over the past year,
including manual and power wheelchairs, hospital beds,
walkers, toileting and bathing devices, and other durable
medical equipment.
The Scott A. Mackler, MD, PhD, Assistive
Technology Program helps patients maintain
independence and interaction as the disease
progresses by lending communication devices
such as computers with voice output, door chimes,
call bells, hands-free access devices and other

and her husband Gerry are also very active Chapter Board Members.
assistive technology equipment. Over 90 items
were loaned through this program and more than
100 evaluations were made by the Assistive
Technology Specialist.
Accessibility: The Cox Family Fund for Accessibility gives people with ALS access to ramping, stair glides,
wheelchair lifts and emergency call devices at no cost, or reduced cost, to them. Through this fund, the Chapter
assisted 83 patients.
Transportation program: The Chapter’s three wheelchair-accessible vans made 321 trips transporting patients
and their caregivers to medical appointments, clinic visits, and recreational events. Two vans are ventilator accessible
vehicles. We also subcontract for wheelchair-accessible
transportation for patients living outside of a 60-mile radius
from the Chapter Office in Ambler, PA.
education
Inservice Programs: To assist health care workers caring
for ALS patients, Chapter Staff offers educational inservice
programs to those working in hospitals, nursing homes,
skilled care facilities, hospices and home care agencies.
Staff provided 43 educational inservices this year.
Resources and seminars: To help patients and their
caregivers better understand and cope with the diagnosis
of ALS, the Chapter offers a two-part seminar for Newly
Diagnosed patients, as well as monthly resource groups
throughout the region. These groups provide an outlet to

address questions and concerns, and share experiences
with others. We were proud to offer three Managing ALS

recreation
This year patients and families enjoyed three special events: 126 attendees at the Longwood Gardens Tour &
Luncheon, 73 attendees at Morey’s Piers Amusement Park, 67 attendees at Linvilla Orchards Tour & Luncheon.
specialty programs
The Chapter recognizes the toll that ALS can take on the whole family. We provide programs and activities that address
the needs of not only our patients, but everyone who is touched by the disease.
Caregivers Day: “Nurturing the Nurturer” is an opportunity for full-time family caregivers to enjoy discussion groups,
recreational and social activities while engaging others in their role. The Chapter provides respite services to ensure
family members can attend. In 2007, 43 caregivers attended this event.
Visiting Volunteer program: This program provides a “friendly visitor” to visit a person with ALS in the home to read
books, share common interests, write letters, run errands, or just enjoy each other’s company. The program includes
a detailed orientation by two patient services staff members and is strictly monitored.
Memorial Service: More than 85 people attended the Chapter’s annual memorial service at Mainline Unitarian Church
in Devon to remember and honor those who have lost their lives to ALS. At the service, we unveiled our Memorial Quilt,
which featured blocks submitted by families who had lost a loved one to ALS in 2006. The Quilt, which was assembled
by the Chapter’s Assistive Technologist, Alisa Brownlee, remains on display in our Chapter office.
Cake decorating is always a favorite activity at Caregivers Day.

A DIFFERENCE
We are doctors searching for a cure. We
are medical professionals helping PALS
learn to live with their disease. We are
volunteers walking to raise money. We are
friends, lending a hand. We are the families
of people living with ALS who have formed
the framework of The Greater Philadelphia
Chapter for the last 30 years. Families
like the Bartones.
MICHAEL BARTONE of Downington, PA was
young, active and vital. And when ALS took his

life in 1992 at the age of just 38, his family and
a close group of friends formed The Michael
Bartone Memorial Foundation, dedicated to preserving his memory, kindling his unselfish inspiration, and continuing his
battle with ALS. The Foundation continues his memory with an annual Rugby Tournament “Scrum for Six” (Michael wore
a #6 jersey), a Golf Outing and a Dinner Dance which have raised more than $200,000 for the Chapter. A scholarship
fund has provided $23,000 in scholarships to seven area students. You can read all about this amazing organization at
www.eteamz.com/michaelbartonememorial.
Michael’s family went beyond his blood relatives. His Uncle
Charlie brought together 13 men who made sure that his
battle was not over. As his brother Dominick says, “We try
to represent ourselves as a group with some of Michael’s
characteristics - courage, dedication, dignity and inspiration.
And, The Greater Philadelphia Chapter is part of the group that
is closest to him.”

On Friday, November 6, 2007, the Chapter hosted a symposium on
the connection between FTD and ALS. Recently, new discoveries
have been made that scientifically link Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
(ALS) and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) in a way that was not previously
known. This symposium addressed what ALS/FTD is, explained the impact
this diagnosis may have on patients, families and caregivers, and provided
information on available support and resources. Speakers included: Murray
Grossman, MD, EdD, Associate Professor, The Hospital of the University
of Pennsylvania, Department of Neurology, School of Medicine; Elisabeth
McCarty Wood, MS, CGC, Genetic Counselor, The Hospital of University of
Pennsylvania; Dana Clay, MS, Genetic Counselor, University of Pennsylvania;

As a result of progress over the past decade, ALS experts are hopeful that
soon, new treatments will be available that can alter the course of the disease.

ADVOCACY
Advocating for our patients and their families, and empowering them to become advocates themselves,
is a central tenet of our mission. Over the past year we worked to build and expand our advocacy program,
and to increase outreach to legislators who serve our patients. If you would like to sign up to receive
up-to-the minute information on how you can help pass legislation that will help ALS families, please log
onto www.alsphiladelphia.org and “sign up to be an ALS advocate” or www.alsa.org/policy to find out about
National advocacy efforts.

Thirty Years of Caring: Gifts
the Schilling family makes a difference
Shonda and Curt Schilling are well-known for their extraordinary
commitment to The ALS Association. It began shortly after Curt
joined the Phillies in 1992 and was inspired by PALS Dick Bergeron.
Shonda readily became an active board member and now serves on
the board of the Boston and Arizona Chapters as well.
Curt’s Pitch for ALS and the Curt Schilling Golf Outing have been
among the Chapter’s biggest fundraisers since the early 1990’s.
The Schillings maintain close relationships with many PALS…
their first child is named “Gehrig” as a tribute to all the PALS they
have met. ALS knows no geographic boundaries, nor does this
exceptional family.
