Larry Prout Jr Courage fund

Larry Prout Jr Courage fund The Larry Prout Jr Courage Fund has been created to aid Mott Hospital patients and their families. Larry Prout Jr. He was also nominated for the C.S.

was born on June 11, 2001 at the University of Michigan's Mott Children's Hospital. He has endured over 100 surgeries due to spina bifida, cloacal extropy, and a massive omphalocele, as well as many other complex medical diagnosis. With support from his family, friends and community, Larry has been able to live a productive and fulfilling life. Larry is involved with several non-profits by fundrai

Larry has received the Arc Livingston Arc Angel Award, the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame Pete Schmidt Courage Award, the State of Michigan Livingston County United Way Young Person of Distinction Award, and the United States House of Representatives Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition-- "in recognition of outstanding an invaluable service to the community" award. Mott Children's and Von Voiglander Women's Hospital - Evan Newport Joy Award and the Mott-Von Voigtlander Hospital - Office of Patient Experience Outstanding Volunteer Recognition Award. Larry fights hard to keep a positive attitude. He says the best way is to help others, and to remember that we are all better together, we must all never give up and never lose hope, and every day is a gift. Larry and his family know the hardships of many hospital stays and recoveries at home, and the financial burden this can bring. Because of the help and support Larry and his family have received over the years, the Prout's wanted to give back by helping families with sick children and young adults. The Larry Prout Jr (The Bear) Courage Fund will help with gas, food, utilities, clothes and many other basic necessities, that become hardships when a family is facing the medical crisis of a loved one.

πŸ’™πŸ» SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT πŸ»πŸ’™

This sponsor recognition is a little different.

The Larry Prout Jr. Courage Fund was founded by Larry Sr. and Kathryn Prout after a lifetime of navigating the challenges of raising a medically complex child. What began as a desire to help one family has grown into a mission that has now helped hundreds of families facing medical crises.

As an In-Kind Sponsor of the 4th Annual Run With The Bear, Larry Sr. and Kathryn continue to donate countless hours, resources, and energy to ensure this event is successful and that families in need receive support when they need it most.

Thank you for your dedication, your vision, and your commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.
