We are thrilled to announce our latest donation to Derik Smith who lost his right leg to cancer in 2012. After breaking his leg, he had 9 surgeries before they discovered it was bone cancer.

After his amputation, he has dreamed of becoming a Paralympian and representing the United States. He is currently training for the upcoming Paralympic Games in LA and we are thrilled to donate a specialized prosthetic leg for discus . Welcome to the team Derik and we are so excited to be a part of your journey and can’t wait to cheer you on!

Congratulations to Team B2R for crushing the 130th Boston Marathon!! Together they raised a total of $42,000!! We are so honored to have them represent us!

Hannah is B2R’s first recipient to run the Boston Marathon for us. She completed her first marathon after losing her leg just 14 months ago and her times were good enough to qualify her for Boston in 2027 as both a para athlete and adaptive!

Matt led our team in fundraising. This was his first marathon and he absolutely crushed it! He was motivated to run for our team since his cousin Ryan has received 3 running blades from us since the age of 9.

Amanda Woodley earned her coveted Six Star Medal after completing her 6th World Marathon Major! She connected with our organization after growing up knowing someone who wore a prosthesis and saw the extensive costs the family faced.

Thank you , , and for your continued support of the foundation.
