The Maudens Foundation was established as a nonprofit organization on June 19, 2002 by Leonard Maudens, Lonnie Nolta, and Austin Cooper.

In Mr. Leonard Maudens' Own Words:

“So that those who follow do not have to endure any unnecessary hardships associated with debilitating diseases. I envision a campaign of education and recognition to preserve the dignity and quality of life of those of us in our final years. Towards that end I establish the Maudens-Wintz Foundation."
