We are celebrating  25 years of serving individuals with life-changing injuries and illnesses.  The Adam Taliaferro Foundation (ATF) was formed in 2001 following an injury that Adam Taliaferro suffered during his freshman season in the Fall 2000 Penn State vs. Ohio State football game that left Adam partially paralyzed. Adam endured spinal infusion surgery and months of rehabilitation at Magee Rehabilitation Hospital in Philadelphia and miraculously was able to walk on his own again shortly thereafter.

The ATF was founded by Adam’s high school football coach along with other Philadelphia-area coaches and business leaders in 2001 with the mission to assist patients who have suffered spinal cord injuries with medical equipment and services not covered by insurance. We are proud to have given over $1.5 million to over 100 individuals and their families!
