Empowering Change For A Brighter Tomorrow

Our mission is to honor Nancy Gott-Cummings — a beloved member of our Salmon, Idaho community; by fueling hope and progress in the fight against ALS. Every purchase helps fund research and support for those living with ALS.

Together, we’re turning small acts of kindness into lasting impact—one slice at a time.

To Pie, With Love

Nancy's good friend and celebrated St. Croix jeweler Mitchell Ousley created the Pie bracelet in the style of the famous St. Croix hook to remind us all of the many good days and excellent times we have been privileged to enjoy with Nancy. Not to mention the delicious pies. It’s a cheeky little bracelet with a generous slice of pie for a clasp.

So now the legacy of Nancy's pies will continue as a fundraiser for the ALS foundation, with 100 % of the profits going directly to research and assistance for patients who are struggling with ALS.

THE PIE MAKERS

We are an officially recognized 501(c)(3) organization. Our corporate officers are Jon Cummings and her longtime friends Mitchell Ousley and Jennifer Horvath.

We are an all volunteer, work from home organization that allows the maximum amount of money raised to support our mission. Jon and Nancy do not request funding for their own expenses. Instead, they would like to facilitate medical research and offer financial support to others who are suffering from this horrible disease.

We would like to recognize and thank the following businesses and professionals that have been very generous in supporting us:

Daniel Crilly, Attorney at Law

Janet and Carl Haddon, Diamond Creek Company - diamondcreekcompany.com

Jay R. Beskin, Assouline and Berlowe, P.A - assoulineberlowe.com
