The Foundation was originally thought of by Alyssa V Phillips - a young lady who was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at the age of two as a result of trauma during birth. Alyssa is a very sensitive young lady who is passionate about educating people regarding the impact of CP and the ability to function despite having CP. Additionally, Alyssa is very passionate about giving back to her community; ac
cordingly, the establishment of a Foundation is a perfect vehicle for Alyssa to spread her message and assist others with maximizing the independence of those with CP. As Alyssa has grown to be a very goal and accomplishment oriented young lady she enjoys participating as an elected representative of her middle school class, horseback riding, conquering 5k walks, and many other activities. She is truly the driving force behind the efforts and mission of the Foundation.
