BOSTON STRONG: A DECADE OF HOPE
Ten years ago, the lives of two brothers from Stoneham, MA, changed forever. J.P. and Paul Norden each lost a leg in the bombings at the Boston Marathon finish line. In the decade
since they have gained so much more.
“In a lot of ways of ways, it changed me for the better,”
J.P. said It’s that positive outlook that keeps J.P. going all these years later. “I don’t ever think about the bombing, ever,” he said. “My day is my day. I get up, I put my leg on and I do what I’ve got to do just like everybody else.”
We are forever grateful for all the love, generosity, and support that was shown to my Boys and Family! To see it continue on with A Leg Forever is humbling, touching, and amazing! Not enough words to say THANK YOU!
A Leg Forever Charitable Foundation, Inc.

Boston Marathon Survivors whom each lost a leg in the bombings of April 15, 2013. The mission of this foundation is to "pay it forward", by assisting amputees (Massachusetts residents only) who lost limbs under tragic circumstances just as the Norden family was helped in their time of need.
