Kayla Corrigan is a proud member of the United States Air Force, currently stationed at Shaw Air Force Base in South Carolina. Originally from Lawrence, New Jersey, Kayla joined the military with a deep sense of purpose and a heart for service — determined to support her country and community.

But now, Kayla needs our help.

On July 8th, 2025, Kayla was involved in a devastating motor vehicle accident that left her with multiple severe injuries: a broken wrist, arm, foot, ankle, and a fractured spine. Her recovery will be long and difficult, and she now faces a series of major surgeries over the next few weeks, followed by months of rehabilitation and recovery in a wheelchair.

Despite the trauma, Kayla remains strong, resilient, and hopeful. Her commitment to healing — and one day returning to service — inspires everyone around her.

Your Support Will Help Kayla With:

Accommodations after multiple surgeries urgently needed to repair her injuries.

Mobility accommodations, including a wheelchair and home medical equipment.

Ongoing physical therapy and rehabilitation care.

Travel and housing support for specialized treatment.

Mental health resources to help her cope with pain, trauma, and adjustment.

Tools for daily comfort and independent living (braces, cushions, adaptive tools).

Why Kayla Deserves Our Support:

Kayla answered the call to serve her country — and now, after suffering life-changing injuries so early in her journey, she needs a community that will serve her in return. While military resources will cover some aspects of care, many critical costs will fall outside what’s provided, especially as she navigates an extended recovery away from home. Please consider donating, sharing, or simply sending encouragement. Every gesture — large or small — helps lift Kayla through this incredibly difficult time. Let’s show this young Airman that she is not alone. That we stand with her. That we never leave one of our own behind.

With gratitude,

Friends and family of Kayla Corrigan
