Volunteer Spotlight: Peter Reynaga 

This month, we are honored to recognize Peter “Chop Suey” Reynaga and the many ways he continues to support the AARBF community. After sustaining burns at the age of 13, Peter quickly became involved with AARBF’s programs and has remained an active part of the burn survivor community ever since. 

Peter began volunteering with AARBF in 2014, as a Champ Camp counselor and has since taken on many roles within the organization. From supporting overnight weekend events to shuttling participants to and from activities, Peter is always willing to step in and help wherever needed. He is someone we can consistently depend on and who truly goes the extra mile. 

In addition to volunteering, Peter actively participates in support groups and retreats not only as a volunteer but also as a burn survivor. He balances many roles in his life as a son, brother, friend, and volunteer and continues to show up with so much dedication and heart. 

We appreciate you so incredibly much, Chop. Thank you for over 12 years of continued commitment as a volunteer to AARBF and the Burn Community.
