Guests will be treated to a prime rib dinner, music, dancing and silent auction, as well as $500 in chips to play casino style games.
“For the last ten years, Triumph Foundation has partnered with people who become paralyzed to assist them with triumphing over the new challenges they face and restoring life," says Andrew Skinner, Triumph Foundation's founder who suffered a spinal cord injury in 2004. "The Let’em Roll Fundraiser brings the entire community together for a night of fun and celebration of our accomplishments. We make quality of life a reality for people.”
This year, Triumph will be honoring Dr. Thomas Hedge, MD; a spinal cord injury specialist in Northridge, CA and has been practicing for 38 years. He specializes in spinal cord injury medicine, brain injury medicine, and more.
Last year, over 350 people attended the ‘Let’em Roll’ Fundraiser, which raised over $100,000. The fundraiser, is not a typical gala, but an inspirational, impactful, and powerful event that builds relationships, raises funds for an important cause, and changes lives.
