Kylee Long

Kylee is a 16 year old high school Junior from a small town in Pennsylvania. She is in a competitive race to be first in her class, and is a killer athlete. Her sport of choice is soccer. She has a varsity letter from her high school team and has won dozens of awards. She also enjoys playing basketball and is an avid outdoorsman-hunting, fishing, you name it.
Aside from her stunning athletic abilities, her personality is truly amazing. Her contagious smile, outstandingly positive attitude, and natural ability to fill the room with laughter, makes her shine brighter than anyone I have ever met.
On November 27th 2018, her life was changed forever. She was on the annual family hunting trip when she was accidentally shot in her lower right leg. Her family members were able to control the bleeding and get her to the nearest medical center just in time to save her life. After countless hours of surgery and 11 units of blood, the surgeons decided that they could not save her leg. Which only left one choice. Amputation. Her right leg was removed a few inches above her knee.
Now, a week later, we are pushing to raise money to get her the best prosthetic leg we possibly can. Good legs run about $50,000-$70,000 a piece. And that doesn’t even touch the thousands of dollars that will be needed for hospital bills and the therapy to teach her how to walk again.
We want this girl back out on that soccer field as soon as possible. Anything helps. All funds will go towards the purchase and fitting of her new leg.
Thank you.
