The Andrei Olenicoff Memorial Foundation was established in November 2005 in memory of Andrei Olenicoff and was made possible by the generous contributions of those who cared for him as a son, brother, husband, friend and colleague. This Foundation serves to honor his memory by carrying on his legacy of kindness, hope, and respect for all.
During his lifetime, Andrei was afflicted with an eye disease called Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP). RP and other retinal degenerative diseases affect 1 in 28 people in the U.S, causing vision impairment or vision loss. Finding a cure for these life-altering diseases and aiding people affected by vision impairment and vision loss is the main goal of this Foundation.
Thank you to everyone who is making this possible.
Special thanks to all who have donated to this Foundation in the memory of Gary Alziebler. Gary was a dear friend and we will miss him always.
