WHO WE ARE

The Billy Cook Foundation was established in the memory of our dear friend and son, William Ivor Cook, Jr. For almost 30 years, Billy battled against Cystic Fibrosis, the most common fatal disease among young children. He was on the University of Pennsylvania transplant list for a double lung transplant for 18 months. After living life fully, enjoying every day, and making many, many friends along the way, Billy passed away on January 14, 1999. Family and close friends came together on that day to form this Foundation. Our goals are to help CF patients and their families with the day-to-day expenses associated with this terrible disease, by providing financial assistance; and to increase public awareness for the need for organ donation.

Please contact us if you would like more information on the Billy Cook Foundation, such as our Charter and/or By Laws.
