Phil Frengs is the Founder and driving force behind Racing 2 End Alzheimer’s. He is also the CEO for Legistics and he traveled extensively for the corporate grind. Being a father and husband, Phil was asked the very difficult question “What do you do when someone you love is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s?”
Phil’s answer to that question was deciding to make a difference in the fight against this insidious disease that affects 6 million Americans and 50 million people worldwide.
“When my wife Mimi was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s, I was devastated — and felt so alone. I started Racing to End Alzheimer’s as a way to channel my emotions into something that might help others who were having similar experiences.”
Phil is a racing buff. His company, Legistics, has sponsored race cars for a decade. So, he wondered:
“What if we replaced the big sponsor logos on our car with the names of people who are facing dementia or who have suffered from this disease? Wouldn’t families and friends contribute $250 to honor someone they love in such a unique and visible way?
For hundreds of donors since we started in 2017, the answer has been a resounding “Yes.”
We had a great talk about the reasons he started the organization and what he has learned so far as he travels across the country raising money and awareness to defeat Alzheimer’s.
