Hope 4 Mike is named in honor of Mike Wright, husband and high-school sweetheart of Becky Wright. Becky and her sister, Lisa Brandau, are the co-founders of AtHome America, a direct-selling, home-decorating company located in Alsip, Illinois. On March 14, 2003, Mike was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
Shortly after Mike was diagnosed, his friends, family and the AtHome America Family wanted to do something to help. So Hope 4 Mike was founded! Hope 4 Mike works to raise funds and awareness for those people living with ALS. To date, Hope 4 Mike has already donated more than $250,000 to organizations working to find a cure!
