Nebraska Visit: Athletes Embrace Our Healing Mission
By Dr. Jon Porman, Executive Director
On March 6-9, 2025, the Foundation traveled to Lincoln to meet with athletes from the University of Nebraska. The weekend embodied our three core pillars—Heal, Inspire, Empower—through every interaction and experience.
HEAL
Our primary mission was to provide physical assessments and wellness recommendations to athletes across multiple sports. We worked with them to address root causes rather than just symptoms, reinforcing our philosophy that true healing happens when we treat the whole person, not just isolated conditions.
INSPIRE
Witnessing excellence in competition inspired us all. We attended an indoor beach volleyball match where Rebekah Allick dominated the sand court, winning her match in straight sets. The men’s gymnastics team delivered an impressive upset against #3 Ohio State, winning by over 4.2 points, with Chris Hiser and Taylor Christopulous standing out in individual events.
EMPOWER
Our conversations with athletes from football, gymnastics, volleyball, and track and field about mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness were most valuable. These young leaders understand what we emphasize: health is multifaceted. They’re now equipped with strategies to take ownership of their complete wellness journey, extending far beyond physical performance.
What demonstrated true empowerment was their decision to give back. Through personal donations for care they and family members received, these athletes raised $2,000 for The Foundation’s ongoing mission! Their contribution will directly support our work with underserved communities.
