This annual event is the main fundraiser for Jordan’s foundation, which provides children of traumatic injuries with new arms and legs, and is committed to working with them through their growth years and to age 18. The financial commitment is great, with the cost of a leg averaging $10,000 and an arm $15,000. The foundation currently has four beneficiaries, and recently pledged to help a young burn victim from Honduras. Please visit www.jordanthomasfoundation.org to read their stories.
