carried out in perpetuity. Currently, The Ayers Foundation has four primary
charitable programs:

“I don’t know why I have been so successful in my life’s work, but I do know that
being able to give back – to help young people get an education, to assist adults
who want to go back to school, to allow children to receive excellent medical
attention, and now, to have the potential to save 60,000 lives each year through
early detection of rectal-colon cancer – this has given me more satisfaction and
pure joy than anything else I can imagine doing with my life.” —James W. Ayers
