Keep Moving Forward Grant Recipient

In rural South Dakota, there's an amazing girl named Abbigail. When she was seven months old, she contracted transverse myelitis - a paralyzing nerve condition. She's now an active young lady with sights on driving and helping on the farm. But without adaptive hand controls, independence was just out of reach.

Thanks to Triumph's Keep Moving Forward Grant, Abby received support for vehicle hand controls. She now has the right tools to take the wheel, propelling her forward with newfound freedom.

Triumph received this special note from her mom:

"I am writing to extend my heartfelt gratitude for the generous grant awarded to our daughter, Abbigail. We are immensely grateful for your support, which has been nothing short of life-changing for her and our entire family. The grant has provided Abbigail with opportunities that we could have only dreamed of. Thanks to your generosity, she has begun her journey of independent driving.

We understand the importance of giving back, and we are committed to ensuring that Abbigail makes the most of this incredible opportunity. We will continue to support her in every possible way to achieve her dreams and, hopefully, to one day pay forward the kindness and generosity that you have shown us.

Once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are eternally grateful for your belief in her potential and for making such a significant difference in our lives. Again, thank you with deepest gratitude for impacting our family with this precious gift"

Make more stories like this possible

Mark your calendar for a very special evening: our Triumph Foundation 2025 Gala, happening Thursday, August 7th at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles.

This year’s theme, Rebuilding Lives, Redefining Strength, is a reflection of the spirit we see every day—people rising to meet unimaginable challenges and discovering new purpose, community, and strength.

The Gala is our opportunity to come together, celebrate these stories, and ensure our mission continues. You'll enjoy delicious food, signature drinks, live music, and the excitement of both a silent and a new live auction experience.

But more than anything, it’s a night to uplift lives and fuel hope.
