CRYSTAL LARAMORE
FOUNDER

Crystal Lee Laramore is the Founder and Executive Director of  Wheelchairs for Warriors. WFW was founded on December 6 2016 and has been recognized by the State of Texas as well as Galveston County, where its HQ is located. Wheelchairs for Warriors serves veterans and first responders who cannot get assistance from normal sources. Crystal’s love for the military, and those who wear a uniform to protect and serve, comes from a family history steeped in the American tradition of serving our country; a passion that runs deep in her family roots. W​it​h​ this burning desire in her heart to serve, Crystal worked for the Department of State (DOS) in Baghdad, Iraq from 2004-2006. She served as a liaison officer to the Ambassador to Iraq, John Negroponte, and received a letter of commendation from the DOS. It was this experience that sparked the fire in her to found an organization that serves warriors. ​Noticing the gap between what our wounded warriors NEED and what they are afforded, Crystal and co-founder Heidi Hansing set out on a mission to provide better wheelchair solutions that would allow wounded veterans and first responders to regain some of their independence and give them the ability to ROLL STRONG! Crystal, along with Wheelchairs for Warriors, received the Four Chaplains Bronze Medal Humanitarian Award in 2023.

Wheelchairs for Warriors provides custom-fit, complex-rehab mobility solutions to injured veterans, law enforcement, and first responders. Each chair is specially tailored to each recipient's individual needs.
