Review for Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation, Pasadena, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been a part of AARBF for over 21 years now, and I am beyond grateful that I was able to get involved as a young burn survivor. Through the resources and programs AARBF offers, I have been able to gain self confidence and learn how to be comfortable in my own skin and out in the community. I have also been able to gain amazing life-long friends and have been surrounded by a family outside of my own family. Once I was able to, I was able to give back by volunteering as a camp counselor for Champ Camp (summer camp for burn survivors ages 5-17). In 2018, an opportunity arose to become part of staff for AARBF and I have never felt more like I am where I am supposed to be and where I belong. I truly am passionate and grateful for all of the work AARBF does for the community year round both in burn prevention education and burn survivor resources.
