Hi, my name is Kimberly and I’m creating this fundraiser to help my daughter, Shannon and her husband Keith Korhonen. This is their story:

Help Keith Walk Again: A Story of Resilience

About Keith and His Family

As some of you may know, last week while at a work conference in Texas, Keith had a freak accident where his knee crushed key arteries running to his leg that led to the emergency amputation of his leg from the knee down. A loyal employee, friend, devoted husband and father of five now needs our support as he fights to get back on his feet. As the sole provider for his family, Keith faces not only physical recovery but also the emotional and financial burden of this unexpected tragedy.

Keith’s wife, Shannon, flew in to be by his side through this ordeal and their children—Julianna, Olivia, Zoey, Braxton, and Savannah—are rallying remotely around their father until he can get released and back to PA. But they need our help.

● Medical Expenses: Keith’s hospital bills are mounting, and ongoing care will be essential for his rehabilitation. Hospital bills, prosthetics, physical therapy, and follow-up appointments add up quickly.

● Family Support: With Keith unable to work, the family faces immediate financial strain. Rent, groceries, utilities, and other basic needs are piling up. We want to ensure that they can focus on Keith’s recovery without worrying about finances.

● Every Little Bit Helps: It’s not always the amount of money but the support that also means a lot.

Keith's Determination:

Despite the pain that comes with this ordeal, Keith is determined to get back on his feet as fast as possible even foregoing heavy pain medication, to get released quicker. Please spread the word and let’s show this guy and his family a ripple effect of compassion and support.
