Kevin Freymann

Kevin’s career in the HVAC industry led him to Ambridge Hospitality. Ambridge is a full-service firm offering hotel and owner services ranging from accounting & finance to marketing, project & business development to operations for organizations including Marriott, Embassy Suites, Hyatt, Hilton, Wyndham, Westin and even The Queen Mary. Kevin worked as a mechanical engineer, helping to keep HVAC systems in hotels and restaurants around Midway Airport in Chicago running in peak condition.

The fall resulted in a traumatic brain injury which paralyzed Kevin on his right side. While at rehab at the Shirley Ryan Ability Lab in Chicago, Kevin learned about our foundation. Kevin requested a bath remodel because they only had a tub shower combo. His family was focused on wheelchair accessible transportation and ramps/door widening into the house, but they could not also handle a bath remodel. “I am a younger man whose life was turned around in a second,” Kevin said. “My life goals were changed before my eyes. I worked so hard for years at my career and now I am helpless. I am wheelchair-bound and not in a handicapped accessible home. Any home improvement help you could provide would be dramatic for my family.”
