The Determined2heal Foundation is a 501(c)3 nonprofit foundation. The foundation was created after Josh Basile, a Maryland teenager, suffered a spinal cord injury in Bethany Beach, Delaware during the summer of 2004. The accident left Josh, a former college tennis player, paralyzed from the shoulders down. His experiences motivated him to make a difference in the lives of others.
The Todd Crawford Foundation was started in August of 2006 with the purpose of raising money for spinal cord injury (SCI) research. I was injured in August of 2002. In the four years between my injury and the creation of the Foundation I received a tremendous amount of support from my family and friends. Much of the support came in the form of money raised through various fund raisers. I have been able to accomplish many things since then because of this support. I am extremely grateful for this. Now I want to use the momentum of this support and direct it towards research on SCI. This research is a immensely important to me and millions of others around the world.

The first physical therapist arrived in Kentucky in 1935. Within the next few years Mary McDonnell was joined by 15 of her colleagues. They came to fight the crippling effects of polio. They touched the lives of World War II veterans whose bodies were mangled and broken. In 1947, feeling the need to unite and expand their knowledge, they founded the Kentucky Chapter of the American Physical Therapy Association.

Michael Brent was in a car accident on July 21, 1997 as he returned home for PGA Valhalla Golf Course in Louisville, KY. He had been caddying on an extremely hot day, unknowingly became dehydrated and blacked out while driving home. Michael had earned an academic/golf scholarship to attend dcollege and was working all summer to improve his game in order to compete at the collegiate level.

We are now a non-profit 501(c)(3), volunteer based, organization that raises funds primarily for spinal cord injury research, grants for victims and their families, spinal cord injury prevention/awareness education and scholarships for locally active high school graduates. We are also one of three founders of the NEW Spinal Cord Injury Association of Kentucky.
