Meet Evan!
Last June, during a routine bike ride as he practiced for Ragbrai, Evan’s life took an unexpected turn when he was hit by a car. The accident left him with devastating injuries: two broken hips, a fractured pelvis, broken ribs, and a traumatic brain injury, among others.
But here’s where Evan truly shines. Despite the challenges he faced, his love for being active fueled his determination to reclaim his independence. He poured his heart into healing, demonstrating incredible resilience and grit. Throughout the fall and winter, he pushed himself every day, setting his sights on one of his major goals—earning his driver’s license.
Today, Evan’s hard work has paid off: he has successfully passed the written driver’s exam and is scheduled for the next steps in his journey toward independence!
Evan’s story is a powerful reminder that with dedication, strength, and an unwavering spirit, we can conquer even the toughest obstacles. We are SO proud of Evan and his remarkable commitment to meeting his goals! Keep shining, Evan!
