Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

TO INVEST IN BETTER LIVES FOR PEOPLE WITH NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES, IN ADIRA'S EARLY YEARS, WE WILL FOCUS PRINCIPALLY, THOUGH NOT EXCLUSIVELY, ON FIVE NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES: ALS, ALZHEIMER'S AND RELATED DEMENTIAS, HUNTINGTON'S DISEASE, MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, AND PARKINSON'S DISEASE. AT ADIRA WE ACCELERATE THE DESIGN AND FUNDING OF BETTER, MORE INTEGRATED HELP FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED IT NOW. WE ASSEMBLE A HANDFUL OF DISEASES THAT STRUGGLE WITH MANY OF THE SAME BIG THINGS. WE TAKE THEM OUT OF ISOLATION WHERE THEY'RE DEFINED NOT BY THEIR DIAGNOSIS BUT BY THEIR STRUGGLE. FROM A BIRD'S-EYE VIEW, WE SEE THE COMMON THEMES AND TRENDS. WE SPEAK WITH PEOPLE GOING THROUGH THIS JOURNEY TO DESIGN BETTER PROGRAMS WITH THEM, NOT JUST FOR THEM. THEN WE FUND THOSE BIGGER, COMMON PROBLEMS WITH WHICH THEY SAY THEY NEED THE MOST HELP. SOME EXAMPLES OF OUR WORK TO DATE FOCUS ON CAREGIVING, NAVIGATION OF DIFFERENT SERVICES, DISABILITY, EQUITY, MEASUREMENTS FOR QUALITY OF LIFE, AND MENTAL HEALTH.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO INVEST IN BETTER LIVES FOR PEOPLE WITH NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES. INITIALLY, ADIRA FOUNDATION ADIRA WILL FOCUS ON FIVE NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES THAT ARE HIGHLY COMPLEX AND HAVE MUCH IN COMMON: ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AND RELATED DEMENTIAS, ALS, HUNTINGTON'S DISEASE, MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, AND PARKINSON'S DISEASE.

  • ADIRA FINANCED GRANTS TO QUALIFIED NON-PROFITS TO INVEST IN BETTER LIVES FOR PEOPLE WITH NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES, STARTING WITH FIVE COMMUNITIES: ALS, ALZHEIMERS AND RELATED DEMENTIAS, HUNTINGTONS, MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, AND PARKINSONS. In 2022, we implemented a third round of competitive grantmaking on three key topics: simplifying clinical research, preparing for financial threats, and helping people thrive again. Total grants paid for 2022 were $281,521. We managed this in addition to monitoring our ongoing grant activities from previous years. Finally, we piloted a series of three neurodegenerative disease (ND) congress events bringing those with lived expertise in conversation with career experts to design new grants together. Unfortunately, due to a lack of financing momentum, we were forced to enter dissolution at the end of the 2022.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J
