Our Angels

Miles

12-year-old MasterChef Junior contestant with a congenital partial arm difference. After insurance denied his prosthetic as “experimental,” he sold desserts to help until Aggies for Limbs funded the remainder, with the news arriving on his birthday.

Santiago

Meet Santiago, our 2024 Angel! As a double below-the-knee amputee, Santiago needed both prosthetic legs to regain his mobility. We were blessed to provide him with both prosthetics in 2024. Santiago was incredibly expressive about how grateful he was for our help. His joy and appreciation during the fitting process reminded our team why we do this important work.

Rosalba

Longtime employee and single mother who needed a leg amputation. Aggies for Limbs was contacted by her employeer to help fundraise for her prosthesis and support her return to work!

Salvador

Meet Salvador, a testament to unwavering determination. After a car accident resulted in the loss of both legs, Salvador refused to slow down. Even in a wheelchair, he continued doing yard work and digging up trees around his home. When we met him in Fall 2022, he shared that he needed his prosthetics to return to work and provide for his family. His incredible work ethic inspired our entire team.

Cleto

Cleto was a below the knee amputee. He received his new prothesis in June 2022. We are so glad that we were able to help him take the next steps in his life both literally and figuratively.

Jorge

Jorge is our Spring 2019 recipient. He was a double amputee, one above the knee and one below the knee. Due to complications with his amputation, he now has two above the knee amputations. We were able to provide another prosthetic after that surgery during the Fall of 2020.

Roman

Meet Roman, one of our inspiring Angels! As a double amputee, Roman has shown incredible determination throughout his rehabilitation journey. His positive attitude and dedication during physical therapy sessions, where he practices walking with parallel bars, demonstrates the remarkable resilience of the human spirit. We are honored to be part of his journey and to help him regain his mobility through prosthetic care.

Reuben

Introducing our 4th Angel Reuben Martinez. He is 20 years old and hopes to one day go back to school and become a prosthetist. Reuben was so grateful that he wore his new Aggies for Limbs shirt to his appointment!

Peggy

We had the pleasure if giving Peggy her prosthetic in early May 2017. Peggy was an above the knee amputee. She is still trying to get used to her new prosthetic. We are very grateful to help Peggy. She has a great attitude and is always joyful.

Santos

Meet Santos, Aggies for Limbs third Angel. She was so excited to get her prosthetic that she wanted to sleep in it! Now that Santos has her new prosthetic leg, she is able to get her GED and become a teachers assistant.

Marquell

Meet Marquell, Aggies for Limbs very first recipient! We were so happy to be able to help bring Marquell back on his feet after 5 months of being unable to walk. When given the opportunity to walk again he took full strides with no hesitation. Seeing his determination brought so much joy to our hearts and inspired us to take the same approach in other areas of our own lives. We look forward to hearing about all of the advances he will make in the days to come!
