The Team Drea Foundation funds and supports bold, innovative research to find a cure or effective treatment for ALS. We see raising awareness about this devastating disease as an opportunity to inspire people to live bravely, love joyfully, and appreciate the gift of life.Team Drea History:Andrea Lytle Peet created Team Drea in 2015 when friends kept remarking that her story had inspired them to take on a big challenge – an Ironman, a half marathon, a triathlon. She encouraged friends and family to take on a race that represented a challenge to them and use it as an opportunity to raise money for ALS research. In 2 years, Team Drea grew to 150+ athletes in 22 states, Canada, and the U.K, and raised more than $165,000 for ALS research.In October 2016, Andrea and her husband David incorporated the Team Drea Foundation as a 501(c)(3) in order to leverage the momentum they have built thus far, and to maximize the flexibility of their support to invest in the most promising ALS research on the horizon.Team Drea Mission:The Team Drea Foundation funds and supports bold, innovative research to find a cure or effective treatment for ALS.

They keep their overhead costs low and innovation high. ALS Therapy Development Institute (ALS TDI)ALS TDI is the world's first and largest nonprofit biotech firm.
