We went to deliver Caring Bags, brochures, and some sweets to Ascension St. John Neurology Department this week! We are so grateful for the opportunity to help survivors and families who are navigating the path to recovery!

This is was some of the team that saved Chris Lieberman’s life. ❤️❤️ We are so thankful for them!

It's been long time since we have posted on Chris' page. Chris uses his personal page for most updates, but this is one post we just had to share. This Father's Day, Chris had another milestone and gained a new name of "grandpa". World, meet Hudson.

Miracles continue to happen. Chris continues to heal and give hope to others suffering with brain injuries and their families through his personal life and the foundation. He's been through so much, yet he continues to inspire us all. We are so grateful for him and so thankful we are able to have this time with him.

We love you all and appreciate how much you have supported our journey.

Peace, Love, and Lieberfun!

We would like to wish all of our survivors, supporters and and board members whom are fathers a very Happy Father’s Day! Special shout out to our co-founder, Chris Leiberman who celebrated his first Father’s Day as a grandfather this year!

World Champion Skier coming to Tulsa to speak at our fundraiser, Shining the Light!

We couldn’t be more excited to have this amazing athlete coming to Tulsa to speak about her TBI! We hope you’ll join us!

MoCrazy was a professional slopestyle and halfpipe skier. In 2013, she became the first woman to land a double backflip in the X-Games. During the World Tour Finals in Whistler, MoCrazy sustained a traumatic brain injury so severe that her fatality report was written during her airlift to Vancouver General Hospital. MoCrazy’s recovery is nothing short of miraculous and she will share her truly inspirational story at this year’s event.
