About the organization:

"A Cure for Nick" is currently in the process of funding a new research program for Infantile and Late Infantile Batten Disease. The project is headed by Dr. Steven Grey at the University of North Carolina, in partnership with three other family organizations. Nicholas Wellner is currently living with the infantile form of Batten disease. Batten disease is a neuro-degenerative disease. Over time, affected children suffer mental impairment, worsening seizures and progressive loss of sight and motor skills. Eventually they become blind, bedridden and unable to communicate; the disease is presently always fatal. Batten disease is not contagious or, at this time, preventable.
Our planning has begun for our fourth annual “A Cure for Nick” Golf Outing and Auction. We have raised over $50,000 to date and we are looking forward to another great year!

About the organization:

The FBIAA was founded in April 1981 in response to the growing recognition that agents needed to join together in order to protect and advance the interests of their profession. The Association was incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia as a non-profit corporation on September 18, 1981. We are proud of our accomplishments and ongoing programs, which include:

The Sam Hicks Act: Passed by the Congress in May of 2010 and later signed into law by the President in June of 2010, this Act grants statutory authority to the heads of federal law enforcement agencies to assist the families of agents killed in the line of duty with relocation costs if they need to move back to their home communities. As a result of intensive lobbying and bi-partisan liaison by the FBIAA, the Act was named in honor of SA Sam Hicks, who was murdered during the lawful execution of a narcotics related search warrant in Pittsburgh on November 19, 2008.

The Memorial College Education Fund: The Association is responsible for the establishment of a college trust fund for the children and spouses of deceased agents. This education assistance program has made college education a reality for young people whose road to further learning might have been interrupted.

We are a group of mainly senior citizens who work one to two days a week making craft items and canning vegetables, jams, jellies, pickles, chow-chow, salsa, etc. to sell at our annual Holiday Bazaar in November. Many of us are widows or widowers who enjoy this time of fellowship where we are able to work together to help others. Profits from the bazaar are used for many benevolent causes in our church and community.
