* Jack Orchard of St. Louis co-founded "Extra Hands for ALS" to help
families who suffer with Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS), despite being an
ALS sufferer himself with only the power of his mind and the use of one
finger to operate a computer. The program provides high school and
college student volunteers the skills they need to become "friendly
visitors," helping with mail or e-mail, housecleaning, getting
groceries, doing yard work, reading aloud or simply providing company to
ALS patients. Students also participate in public awareness events,
such as organizing an ALS Awareness Day at their school or running an
information booth at a community fair. To date, hundreds of students
have worked thousands of hours all over the country for the cause.
