Posted on Tuesday, April 2, 2024



ORLANDO, FL (April 2, 2024) – Nautique Boat Company is proud to announce a partnership with Hop On A Cure, a non-profit foundation dedicated to supporting research in order to prevent, reverse and cure ALS. Together, Nautique and Hop On A Cure will focus on gaining awareness for ALS and work towards the common goal of unleashing the power of community.
 
Nautique will be hosting the Hop On A Cure team at several events throughout 2024. This presence will aim to gain visibility to all the initiatives and fund raising that the Hop On A Cure team work towards. The first event they will be attending is the 64th Nautique Masters at Callaway Gardens on May 24-26, 2024.
 
"We're excited to partner with Nautique, and incredibly grateful to be a part of Nautique Cares initiative,” said Nic Shefrin, CEO of Hop On A Cure. “Research for ALS is an underfunded area, and awareness is so important. There's a natural alignment between Hop On A Cure and Nautique - from Hop's lifetime love of the water, to Nautique's mission to help make the world a better place. We're looking forward to collaborating with Nautique at upcoming events to reach a new audience and, eventually, find a cure for ALS."
 
Under the Nautique Cares initiative, there are several philanthropic efforts that the Nautique team participates in on an annual basis. Bringing the Hop On A Cure organization into the fold and providing them with a platform like the world-class Nautique events is just the first step in a meaningful partnership.
 
“I’m so proud to be embarking on this special partnership with Hop On A Cure,” stated Nautique President Greg Meloon. “Our culture here at Nautique is to make a difference in our community and I’m excited to get involved with the great people at Hop On A Cure.”

About Hop On A Cure Foundation: Hop On A Cure was founded in 2022 after John Driskell Hopkins of Zac Brown Band was diagnosed with ALS. ALS is consistently one of the most underfunded diseases for research. Because of that, not much significant progress has been made since Lou Gehrig passed away from the disease in 1941. The mission of the foundation is to support research to prevent, reverse, and cure ALS while raising awareness, building a compassionate community, and unleashing the healing power of hope.
