Philanthropy
Foot Levelers knows we wouldn’t be what we are today without the support of our doctors, our patients, and the communities we serve. Giving back is important to us.
Highlights
9/11 Relief: Two of this country’s bleakest moments spurred our CEO to create a challenge among his Chiropractic network, pledging to match up $200,000 to aid 9/11 families and relief efforts. Not only was the gift matched; it topped out at $600,000.
Hurricane Katrina: Again in 2005, when Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, Kent put out the same challenge, again raising close to $600,000 toward relief efforts.
Ontario Wildfires and West Virginia Floods: In 2016, Foot Levelers donated over $75,000 worth of shoes to victims of the massive wildfires in Canada and to the flood victims of Greenbrier County, West Virginia.
Junior Achievement of Southwest Virginia: Kent recently challenged the community to raise money for Junior Achievement of Southwest Virginia by offering to match up to $50,000 (if the challenge was completed within 5 days!). Over $55,000 was raised as a result, for $105,000+ total toward Junior Achievement’s youth programs.
Supporting the Chiropractic Profession: Over the years, Foot Levelers has opened a number of Chiropractic health centers and educational campus buildings, funded Chiropractic research studies, established college scholarships for aspiring DCs, and more. Foot Levelers also hosts dozens of educational seminars and free webinars each year, all aimed at helping the Chiropractic practitioner be the best DC he or she can be.
