The Coach Algeo Fund

Working to Improve Lives, One Screening at a Time

Teachers.  Coaches.  Administrators.  School Staff.  These are all educators who so often put taking care of others ahead of taking care of themselves.  This was true of Jim, Mickey, and Danny Algeo.  They believed the foundational quality of being a leader is service to others.  This is a wonderful way to live - and we should all follow their lead and do more of it!!  Except when it comes to our health.  In that case, we should be a little more selfish - we can help more when we are healthy.  And that is the mission of the Coach Algeo Fund - to meet these servant leaders of our communities where they are, providing mobile diabetes screenings at their schools, to help people identify if they have diabetes or pre-diabetes without realizing it, as diabetes can be a stealthy disease, with no apparent symptoms.  With these screenings, our goal is to help people avoid some of the health challenges that Jim, Mickey, and Danny Algeo faced, each of whom battled diabetes along with other health challenges that took them from us sooner than necessary.  We would be honored if you would help us in our mission.  Please read on and reach out to learn more.
