Help a Disabled Vet Start a Life-Saving Business




Hello, my name is Tim. I am a 39 year old husband, married 18 years to my beautiful wife. A father of two boys, ages 10 and 8. I have served 21 years in the US Army including 3 combat tours in the Global War on Terror. My time in combat has left me with multiple service connected disabilities that now add to the difficulty of living a normal life.

In order to persevere in the face of these difficulties,  I have found my passion.  I am fueling this passion and using it to give myself purpose.

I am on a mission to provide as many people as possible with the necessary life-saving skills needed to effectively respond to disasters, medical traumas and physical security threats.

To do this, I have become an Authorized Training Provider of the American Red Cross. I am a certified instructor in; First Aid/CPR/AED (Adult, Child and Infant), CPR/AED for Professional Rescuers, and Wilderness and Outdoor First Aid. 

I am also a Recognized Training Provider of Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC), listed with the Committee on Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (C-TECC). I provide training in TECC First Care Provider, as well as TECC First Responders with a Duty to Act.

I am also a certified instructor in the American College of Surgeons "Stop the Bleed" program.

The company I am getting off the ground is called Immediate Response Training, LLC. Through my company,  I currently partner with gun ranges to offer training to; range safety officers, law enforcement, armed professionals, firearm owners, hunters, etc.

Funds raised will go directly towards purchasing high quality training equipment and simulators to ensure I am bringing the most realistic and valuable training possible to those who may find themselves in a life-threatening event.

Over the last few years I have offered my time and energy to multiple non-profits. Those organizations include; Boy Scouts of America as a certified Cubmaster, my local VFW as a member, and a board position on a youth wrestling club were I am a certified Safe Sport Leader and and Copper Certified Coach through USA Wrestling. I fully intend to continue to serve these non-profit organizations by providing them my services on a charitable basis.

Please consider being a part of my mission of providing life-saving training where it is needed.

Thank you so much for your time and any financial contibution you can make to this mission!
