As a result of this injury, he learned of the Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation (AARBF), which enhances the quality of life for burn survivors and promotes burn prevention education. Gino became a donor to AARBF. He also began to volunteer with AARBF’s Ambassador Program, which helps raise funds through speaking engagements at companies. Gino then became a peer resource counselor for others who have gone through similar injuries, helping them in their recovery process. He serves as Vice President of AARBF’s Executive Board and in this role, is responsible for oversight of the foundation’s policies and plays a critical role in the financial health of AARBF.
