Our Foundation's Story
Founded in 2008 by Dr. Alan Finkel, the Carolina Headache Foundation is a nonprofit organization committed to improving headache treatment and management in the state of North Carolina. Dr. Finkel realized that there were many separate aspects of headache treatment that needed to be brought together, so he started the foundation as a way to "put heads together" in order to find better solutions.
