ABOUT THE WILL ROGERS INSTITUTE

Will Rogers has long been famous for his roles in popular movies and films. We all remember his charismatic style and the way he seemed to embrace the characters he played.

More important than all of this is the role that he continues to play in the lives of thousands of people throughout the world. His legacy lives on through the Will Rogers Institute, that was founded soon after his tragic death in 1935.  The Institute is making strides every day in understanding, treating, and curing pulmonary diseases and disorders.
