The RGF: Keeping Xavier Connected!

Xavier’s family have been in touch to thank us for supporting him.

His father said: “The Rob George Foundation recently helped provide Xavier with an iPhone, a gift that has already begun making a significant difference for him. Battling illness, Xavier has faced some isolation, which we were worried might start taking a toll on his mental health. Now, with this generous gift, he can easily stay connected with his friends and loved ones, which allows him to maintain those essential relationships that bring support, comfort, and strength during this challenging time.

“The ability for Xavier to reach out for a chat or video call with his friends has uplifted Xavier’s spirits, helping him to remain positive. Regular communication with his friends and others in the same position as he is has proven to be a great tool for his mental well-being, enabling him to focus on the brighter side of life.

“The Rob George Foundation’s support was more than just material; their care and compassion were evident from the start. They were consistently communicative, ensuring Xavier felt supported at every step of the process; they went above and beyond to ensure Xavier’s gift arrived as expected. The foundation’s dedication to helping individuals like Xavier was clear, and their timely assistance has given him both the practical tool of an iPhone and the emotional support to continue fighting his illness with optimism.”

RGF trustee David Cant said: “What amazing words, eloquently capturing what a difference the RGF has made to a young man’s life when it is most needed. All the very best, Xavier.”
