IN THE SPIRIT OF GIVING, HELP CHANGE A HERO'S LIFE.
MICHAEL SHANNON, U.S. NAVY VETERAN & FORMER FIREFIGHTER
During Hurricane Harvey, I was doing search and rescue helping families out of their homes into boats... It wasn't until I went to the doctor where they found a black mark on the bottom of my right foot... it was a crack that had captured bacteria from the black water I was in during the Hurricane... it lead to a below the knee amputation... then I noticed an abrasion on my left foot...thinking 'not again' - it lead to the amputation of my other knee. I found out I was receiving an IBOT from the Robert Irvine Foundation. My life changed forever. It has helped me physically and mentally...YOU have given me my life back, be a father again, help me live my life fully.
I am the reason what the Robert Irvine Foundation does matters.
LINDSEY MULFORD& ACE (service dog)
When I was in high school, I was raped. It takes your identity from you. When I joined the military, I was looking for something... and it did give me a sense of purpose. After the military, I fell into an abusive relationship... Now out of it, I’ve been working on myself... my therapist said I’d be a good candidate for a service dog... I am so thankful because ACE has changed by life. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. As a supporter of the Robert Irvine Foundation, YOU have changed my life. I can be the mom I always wanted to.
My story is the reason what the Robert Irvine Foundation does matters.
YOU ARE THE REASON FOR THE POSITIVE CHANGE IN OUR HEROES' LIVES.
The unfortunate reality is that so many of our nation's heroes are in need of support - for their physical and mental wellbeing.
That is why the Robert Irvine Foundation has made it our number one priority to address the mental health crisis among our military and first responder communities through our Food, Wellness, Community, and Financial Support programs.
The reason we are able to grow our mission, is because of the generosity of supporters like YOU.
