Team Samantha to Project Walk

Donation protected
In February of 2008, at the age of 21, Samantha Twining was in a car accident that left her paralyzed from the waist down. From the beginning, she was diagnosed as a Complete T-9 Paraplegic, which gave her little to no hope of ever walking again. But, because of the intense training that she has done in the past few years, Samantha is making progress every day and has noticed tremendous changes in her body.

To give Samantha a shot at continuing her road to recovery, this page was created to raise funds so that she can attend one of the best Spinal Cord Rehab facilities in the world, Project Walk in San Deigo, California.

"Project Walk® is the pioneer in activity-based recovery and has been treating people living with paralysis for nearly two decades. Our Certified Recovery Specialists treat tens of thousands of client hours each year with amazing results. It is this knowledge and experience that makes our program unlike any other recovery center in the world." (Visit www.projectwalk.com for more info.)

"First and foremost, I want to thank everyone stumbling upon this page for taking the time to read. I also want to thank my family, friends and entire community for the support and encouragement you've given me throughout the years. It means everything to me.

I've noticed a tremendous change in my body and I'm happy to say that my nerves are regenerating in places I was told they never would. My body is an investment, it's the only one I've got. I'm training hard and saving what I can to get there but it's going to take a very long time. I have accepted my paralysis but I do not feel like I should be giving up just yet. There's so many who have faith in my recovery, this is a chance to see what I can do."- Samantha

With the help of her family, friends and the multiple communities that Samantha involves herself in, we have faith that there is no limit to what she can accomplish. 

"Thanks again, to everyone involved in this, and a extra special thanks to all of my coaches who have pushed me to be the best possible version of myself. I absolutely would not be taking this next step without your support and belief in me."- Samantha Twining
