Dan Weil 50th Anniversary Alumni Chair

Dan Weil’s connection to the American Liver Foundation (ALF) is deeply personal. Nearly 30 years ago, his wife, Liz, was diagnosed with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a chronic liver disease. Inspired by her journey and driven by a desire to help others facing similar challenges, Dan became involved with ALF through the then-Illinois Chapter. Since joining ALF’s National Board of Directors in 2010, he has been a dedicated volunteer, advocate, philanthropic leader, and champion of ALF’s mission to improve the lives of individuals and families affected by liver disease through research, education, advocacy, and patient support. Dan served as ALF’s National Board Treasurer from 2012 to 2020 and as Chair of the National Board of Directors from 2020 to 2023. His leadership, generosity, and unwavering commitment have helped strengthen the Foundation and expand its impact nationwide.

As Alumni Chair of the American Liver Foundation’s 50th Anniversary National Legacy Gala, Dan is proud to help celebrate five decades of progress in the fight against liver disease. He invites fellow ALF alumni, volunteers, supporters, and friends to join him in investing in the Foundation’s future. Their generosity will help advance critical research, patient support services, education, and advocacy efforts while ensuring that ALF continues to transform lives for generations to come. Together, as we celebrate 50 years of impact, we can lay the foundation for the next 50 years of hope, innovation, and progress toward a future free from liver disease.
