The Dorough Lupus Foundation, Inc

The Dorough Lupus Foundation was established as the direct result of and
in memoriam for the tragic loss of Caroline Dorough-Cochran to the devastating
disease, Lupus. In response to public interest generated upon the web-site
of Howard Dorough (a.k.a. Howie D. of the Backstreet Boys) and at the
urgings of prominent doctors within the field, Howard Dorough and family
established the Dorough Lupus Foundation. The goal was to create a financial
avenue for "donors" to send in charitable contributions to be
allocated to organizations and individuals dedicated to the research,
treatment and public education of the disease Lupus.
The Dorough Lupus Foundation has made tremendous strides in their primary
years through their annual events, such as the Cruise and the celebrity
filled Concert and auctions, all of which generate funds allocated by
the foundation for the financial support of research, treatment and public
education on Lupus. Additionally, the Dorough Lupus Foundation has established
and implemented support groups for those affected by the disease and help
sponsor financially stricken families to enable them to support and care
for their loved ones while receiving medical treatments. For more information,
