About the Live Like Lou Foundation
The Live Like Lou Foundation was established in 2017 as a national nonprofit with a vision to leave ALS better than we found it. Named in honor of MLB Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig, a member of Phi Delta Theta Fraternity, Live Like Lou supports ALS families, funds emerging researchers seeking meaningful treatments and cures for ALS, and helps generate awareness of Lou Gehrig’s disease. In the face of his ALS diagnosis, Lou Gehrig continued to live his life with courage, determination, and gratitude...this is what we mean when we say live like Lou.

Founded at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, in 1848, Phi Delta Theta International Fraternity has 193 chapters at college campuses across the United States and Canada. To date, the Fraternity has initiated nearly 300,000 men into the society whose founding principles are Friendship, Sound Learning, and Rectitude. Because Lou Gehrig was a member of Phi Delta Theta, the Fraternity’s membership is passionate about raising funds, serving the ALS community, and creating awareness to help find treatments and a cure for Lou Gehrig’s disease through the Live Like Lou Foundation.
