Josh Hvegholm
On June 29, 2025, Josh was involved in a high-speed dirt bike accident when a dirt road unexpectedly ended in a drainage ditch. The crash caused multiple serious injuries, including fractures, internal trauma, and severe damage to his right leg, which ultimately required amputation.
“They say every man is defined by his reaction to any given situation, well who would you want to define you? Someone else or yourself? Whatever you do, give it your heart and stay strong.”
High Fives has provided:
Cycle 2 2024 Grant Funding for running blade prosthetic.
“This grant will allow me to receive a running blade, giving me the opportunity to get back into jogging, hiking, and playing sports. It will support my physical fitness, mental health, and help me rebuild my sense of identity while gaining more independence and confidence.“
