Why U2FP?

Our friend, Gavin Birl, suffered a spinal cord injury in a snowboarding accident that abruptly changed the course of his life. He has persevered through surgery, rehabilitation, and navigating a world that is often inaccessible for those who are paralyzed.

Gavin’s accomplishments since his accident in 2021—including walking across the stage at his high school graduation just two years later, living independently, and founding his own company (GC Pickles)—are nothing short of inspiring.
