John Wareing Foundation hasn't added a story.
All proceeds for the 2021 Olympics will go to THE JOHN WAREING FOUNDATION. Through the JW foundation, all proceeds will benefit BROCK PETERSON, a Bay Colony Resident who recently sustained a spinal cord injury in a diving accident on July 3 rd , 2021.
Brock was rushed to VB General where surgery was later performed to stabilize his fractured C5 vertebrae and start the path to recovery. On July 19, Brock flew via air ambulance to the Shepherd Center in Atlanta to begin aggressive spinal cord rehabilitation. Currently he has movement in some of his upper body and sensation throughout his body. Brock is currently unable to move from the chest down. Regardless of the outcome, spinal cord injury is a life-altering event. We don't yet know where this road will take Brock but we do know that Brock, his fiancé Carrie Carver, and his family are facing a long and expensive road to recovery. According to the National SCI Statistical Center the average costs for the first year in recovery are in excess of $1,160,000.
The John Wareing Foundation is a community-focused 501c3 nonprofit organization helping those in the Hampton Roads area who have recently encountered an injury to the spinal cord and need assistance. Their mission is to “aim to implement a culture that values seeing potential in others, self-growth, and giving back to help less advantaged individuals achieve success in life. Through fundraising events and donations, they provide a varied scope of financial assistance to those locally in need.
