"I am so grateful and excited for the opportunity to work with my great friend Hilary, to give back and make a difference. I can't wait to help people in a way I never really have been able to in the past; by not only connecting them with respectable resources, but also easing the financial burden that treatment can bring on an individual or family. It's going to be so amazing to witness the transformations and empowerment first-hand."-- Jason Wahler.
"22 years ago, I became sober. For the first six years, every day, I suffered tremendous PTSD from growing up with horrific Trauma. With the help of an incredible foundation, my life was saved, and I vowed that one day when I had the means and the platform, I would do the same. I want to give back, and now I get to."-- Hilary Roberts.
