Overview
The Joe Niekro Foundation was established in 2007 in honor of Joe Niekro, who lost his life from a sudden cerebral brain aneurysm on October 27, 2006. The astonishing lack of public awareness and under-support of research of such a widespread and often fatal condition led to the launch of a crusade to educate and encourage awareness about brain aneurysms and other cerebral diseases. The Joe Niekro Foundation is committed to supporting patients and families, research, treatment, and awareness of brain aneurysms, AVMs (arteriovenous malformations) and hemorrhagic strokes. We provide education on the risk factors, causes, and treatments of these conditions while funding the advancement of neurological research.
