Founded in 1992 by Guy Alba, ELA is an association of families willing to move mountains to defeat leukodystrophies. Thanks to its dynamism and determination, ELA is now present in seven European countries: Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Spain and Switzerland.
“You have to stand up to this disease, fight it, try to eliminate it, defeat it. It’s not easy, because everyday life is difficult, but you have to believe that one day it will all come to an end. Even if it’s hard for the families, we have to keep hoping. As for me, I’ll always be there for ELA.”
Zinédine Zidane, honorary member of ELA
For more than 25 years, Zinédine Zidane has supported ELA’s fight. Throughout all these years, he has used his fame to raise awareness about leukodystrophies and has been the voice of families on every playing field.
