Giving Back
Beyond the Courtroom
Beyond his legal career, Thomas Przybylowski is deeply committed to supporting charitable causes, especially those with personal significance to his family. Together with his wife, Caroline, he focuses much of that support on the frontotemporal degeneration (FTD) and ALS communities, where the needs are long-term and the burden often falls heavily on families and caregivers.
A Family Cause
Thomas and Caroline Przybylowski’s work in the FTD community centers on expanding awareness and driving tangible support through fundraising. Caroline is a co-founder of the #FTDHotShotChallenge, a grassroots campaign built around a hot sauce challenge that encourages people to participate, share, and donate in support of the Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration (AFTD).
The effort is rooted in lived experience. Caroline has shared publicly that her mother was diagnosed with FTD at age 59 — a moment that brought the disease and its ripple effects into sharp focus for their family. From there, the goal became simple and direct: get more people to recognize what FTD is, talk about it sooner, and contribute to the work that helps families navigate it.
For Thomas and Caroline Przybylowski, these causes are near and dear because they bring people together, convert attention into real resources, and keep families from carrying the burden alone.
The #FTDHotShotChallenge
Turning Heat into Hope
The #FTDHotShotChallenge is a viral fundraising campaign co-founded by Caroline Przybylowski that has raised over $108,000 for the Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration (AFTD) — surpassing its original $100K goal. Participants take a hot sauce challenge on video, share it online, and nominate others to do the same.
Thomas Przybylowski supports that same mission through ongoing involvement with AFTD, including giving and fundraising recognized by the organization. The couple prioritizes efforts that create real momentum — helping campaigns reach new audiences, supporting caregiver resources, and contributing to research and community programs.
