We are honored to celebrate Alberto Hernandez, a true pillar of the AARBF community. Burned at just 9 months old, Alberto carries hidden scars but has never let them define him. Since joining AARBF in 2000, Alberto has dedicated his life supporting burn survivors and their families with compassion and strength.
Since he became SOAR-trained, Alberto has been visiting the UCLA burn unit weekly, offering hope and encouragement to patients. He has volunteered as a bus chaperone for Champ Camp, ensuring campers arrive safe, and he has been bringing joy to our holiday parties, making every gathering brighter.
Alberto is not only a compassionate listener and communicator, but also a shining example of resilience and service. His commitment inspires us all, and we are deeply grateful for the countless lives he has touched.
We appreciate Alberto for his unwavering dedication to AARBF.
