Description
Sergeant Mike Spivey, a retired U.S. Marine and former resident of Freedom Station I. While leading a foot patrol in Afghanistan, Mike was injured by an IED blast that resulted in the amputation of his left arm. After living at Freedom Station, Mike successfully transitioned to civilian life – he and Kris got married and now own their own home. With assistance from the foundation, Mike began a successful Paralympic snowboarding career competed in the 2022 Winter Paralympics in Beijing. Tis’ the season for giving, and with your help, we can make wishes come true for our nation’s heroes this holiday season! The 17th annual Warrior Foundation Freedom Station Give-a-thon is a fun and festive event that raises much-needed funds to fly ill and injured soldiers, sailors and Marines home for the holidays, so they can wake up in their own beds on Christmas morning. Please join us as we work to ensure that all service members who wore the uniform for our country can call their families and say, “I’ll be home for Christmas.” DONATE ONLINE: https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/community/warrior-foundation-give-a-thon/509-935a7378-1ea3-4a68-b661-03340d6f6226
