For Farmers Insurance agents like Mike Clinkenbeard, also a member of the Platinum Elite Group, the causes important to his clients become important to him too.

Mike has been involved with the fight against Ataxia for many years, including sponsoring annual fundraisers.  One of Mike and Marla Clinkenbeard's clients has 2 sons who live with Ataxia.

Never heard of Ataxia Before?

"The word ataxia means without coordination. People with ataxia have problems with coordination because parts of the nervous system that control movement and balance are affected. Ataxia may affect the fingers, hands, arms, legs, body, speech, and eye movements. The word ataxia is often used to describe a symptom of in-coordination which can be associated with infections, injuries, other diseases, or degenerative changes in the central nervous system. Ataxia is also used to denote a group of specific degenerative diseases of the nervous system called the hereditary and sporadic ataxias which are the National Ataxia Foundation's primary emphases."
