Our Story
In February 2018, I was in a ski accident that changed my life forever. I was 13 years old, suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury, and was in a coma for nearly two months. My parents were told that I would likely never wake up again, and even if I did, I would never be able to walk or talk again, much less ever make it back to my friends and school.
Thanks to the incredible support of amazing doctors, nurses, specialized therapists, latest technology equipment, and the amazing community that surrounded my family, I am now living my best life ever as I continue my recovery.
My brother Peakay and I decided to start this foundation to help as many others find the emotional and practical support they need during the very scary and chaotic time we faced. We are here to help, whether by sharing our experiences or by helping families find the resources they need.

Finding Hope, Embracing Unity
In the face of adversity, my brother Peakay and I learned firsthand what it is like to go through the journey together. He was by my side the whole time and we helped each other go through the ups and downs facing the new reality.
Together, we set out to help others who have been affected by brain injuries. Based on our own personal experiences, we started this foundation with a single purpose: to provide support and inspiration to others facing their most difficult challenge.

A New World of Uncertainty
With each brain injury being unique and prognoses often uncertain, the journey to recovery can be daunting. Both victims and their families are met with a flood of anxiety, particularly in the time immediately following the injury and isolation and sorrow become overwhelming.
A Beacon of Hope
Recognizing the diverse and intricate needs associated with brain injuries, our foundation was established as a guiding light in the darkest of times. We understand that families, still grappling with the consequences of a newly acquired brain injury, lack the time and resources to address their many needs. That is why we exist - to provide a comprehensive community of support and resources, serving as a source of unwavering hope and help with finding a path forward.
Uniting Hearts, Restoring Strength
For those who feel scared, lost and alone, our foundation offers solace and a sense of belonging. Through our network of shared experiences, we create a powerful bond between victims and their families, ensuring they never have to face their struggles in solitude. Whether it's sharing stories, seeking advice, or simply finding a shoulder to lean on, our community stands united, restoring strength and belief in the face of adversity.
Together, We Rise
Our foundation stands as a testament to the extraordinary power of unity and compassion. Rooted in the firm belief that no one should navigate the challenges of brain injury alone, we relentlessly strive to provide the support, resources, and understanding that families rightfully deserve. Together, we rise above obstacles, planting seeds of resilience, and nurturing a future filled with hope.
