Alure
recently remodeled
the Ali Family home
for an episode of
Extreme Makeover:
Home Edition. Alure
was so impressed with
Paul and Kuran Ali,
both age 12, that we
wanted to do more to
affect their lives in
the future. Sal Ferro
had an idea—college
scholarships to help
the boys realize
their dreams. At a
company meeting in
the middle of the
makeover, the idea
was unanimously
approved by Alure’s
staff. $60,000 was
put into a trust fund
pay to for their
college education.
Thanks to the viewers
who voluntarily sent
contributions.

In honor of Alure's commitment
to help others, the Same Simon
Foundation has named a service
dog after Sal Ferro, President
of Alure. "Sal" is a
Maltese/Minature Poodle mix
puppy. "He has a perfect
disposition and perfect energy
for a Service Dog," says Tyler
Winslow of the Sam Simon
Foundation, "He was rescued
from a local animal shelter--as
all of our dogs are--and will
enter our foundation’s Hearing
Dog program in the next couple
of weeks. We are confident that
we will see great things from
him and, at the completion of
his training, he will be
adopted out at no cost to a
deaf person in Southern
California to make daily life a
little
easier."
