## Resource

A wounded Iraq War veteran, Christopher Lawrence, just got a life-changing surprise: a brand new 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross, fully paid for by the Military Warriors Support Foundation’s Transportation4Heroes program — plus two years of financial mentoring for his family. After serving 12 years in the Army, earning a Purple Heart and Bronze Star, and recovering from a leg wound, Lawrence now coaches youth sports and is thrilled this gift will free up time with his wife and five kids. He’d previously applied but was passed over — until this opportunity came around. The foundation, active since 2007, has given out over 200 vehicles nationwide, offering not just wheels, but peace of mind to those who’ve sacrificed so much.
