The primary mission of MBB is to #SpreadTheLove by providing financial assistance to ALS patients. For the last 8 years she has run every aspect of the organization on her own. She is dedicated to doing what she can to help those living with ALS and is happy to say that as of September 2022, MBB has provided over $220,000.00 in financial assistance.

She is currently working on an initiative to offer pro bono legal services through MBB to people living with ALS.
