Help Adam, Teacher and Dad of Longtime Littleton Family

Please help us raise funds to help Adam Burns our wonderful friend and colleague who is suffering from Multiple Symptom Atrophy (MSA) a rare, progressive neurological disorder that affects the brain and nervous system. It is described by doctors as ALS paired with Parkinson's. Adam is only 52 years old, a devoted husband and father of two teenage girls. As a rare disease, treatment costs are particularly high. Adam's family is also facing the cost of expensive renovations including a stair lift, ramp, accessible tub and ultimately in-home care.

Adam is a master electrician and graduate of the Medford Vocational Technical High School's electrical program. A decade ago Adam left the trade to return to Medford and dedicate himself to training young men and women as a teacher at MVTHS. Through his work he has helped hundreds of students achieve their career goals and build a financial stable and rewarding life for themselves.

Unfortunately, Adam is now no longer able to teach and our school has lost a valuable member of our community. There is nothing we can do to help him return to teaching, but we can support him and his family, and we can give back to a wonderful friend, teacher, and colleague who has help so many.
