Kimberly was injured 2 days ago ending her Hoka Hey ride benefiting the Permobil Foundation. While she is healing let’s make a difference by continuing to help her raise money for this nonprofit.
The Permobil Foundation is a non-profit organization that believes that regardless of disability, everyone deserves a chance to reach their dreams without limitations. No person should be excluded from opportunity due to a disability. Independent mobility is a basic human right. They offer valuable support and assistance that improves the quality of life for those with mobility limitations on a local, regional and national level including the gift of mobility through donations of advanced rehab mobility solutions and accessories and more.
You can contribute to this cause at: https://permobilfoundation.org/about.html
Show your support for Diana 2026 United States Emissary who was injured yesterday while riding the Hoka Hey Challenge raising money for Outlaw Faith Foundation in memory of Vicky Newton Smith. Outlaw Faith has been providing hope and community through BOOB SUPPORT since 2017.
You can make donations or purchase Outlaw Faith wear at the link below and help Diana continue to reach her goal while she heals.

I want to thank everyone for their wishes prayers and thoughts for Diana and her family during this crazy time. Many have asked where to send cards and flowers and how they can help. Cards and flowers can be sent to 217 Rattlesnake Way, Cibilo, TX 78108. The most important help would be donating to Diana’s charity, which she was raising money for through her Hoka Hey journey. While she isn’t able to complete the challenge there is still a need to be filled. Donations can be made at

EPIC pageants did AMAZING work for the Arizona Community while in Arizona. During the 2026 national pageant weekend in June. As a group, delegates put together more than 100 kits and donated them to Banner Health Foundation, which helps cancer patients. Service Projects at EPIC began in 2024 when national delegates asked to expand the national experience with a service-oriented activity. Showing and developing leadership is one of the pillars of EPIC, and it happens during the pageant weekend. #EPICpageants #cancer #bannerhealth
