We are two gentlemen that were burned as children and would like to make a difference in young burn survivors' lives by showing them there is a life after being burned. Nothing heals burn survivors like other burn survivors. Our message is simple; we would like to aid survivors in getting back to normal lives after a burn injury. We can help, with your assistance, to make the burn recovery easier.

Our nonprofit foundation creates scholarships so burn survivors can attend summer camp with children just like them and we send children and their families to the Phoenix World Burn Congress each year.

The Phoenix World Burn Congress is an annual, international conference that brings together 900 burn survivors, their families, caregivers, burn care professionals, and firefighters. The purpose is to offer support, increase their knowledge of burn recovery, and share inspiring stories. For many burn survivors, it is their first opportunity to connect with others on the journey of burn recovery. Joe and Drew will be taking a family to the World Burn Congress in Anaheim, California. Thank you for making it a memorable event for them.

2025 Phoenix World Burn Congress

Held in Covington, Kentucky November 12-14, 2025, this event brings together burn survivors, their caregivers, burn care professionals, and fire service members to celebrate resilience, healing, and community. It’s a space to find hope, share stories, and connect with a community that understands and uplifts.

We are pictured here with Marina, a brave and delightful person, and her mother Olga.

As always, we are grateful for all of your continued support.

Joe and Drew
