What is the Colton Underwood Legacy Project?
The Colton Underwood Legacy Foundation is a non-profit organization that was created by former NFL player, Colton Underwood. It is meant to provide resources for research, support and empower people with Cystic Fibrosis to dream big and live life fully while managing their health and medical challenges.
In 2018, Colton and his Foundation and International Biophysics, maker of the AffloVest, partnered to launch the Legacy Project. For the Legacy Project, also referred to as 50 AffloVests in 50 States, Colton will provide 50 cystic fibrosis patients with an AffloVest, the next generation in airway clearance treatment. This will people with cystic fibrosis to follow their treatment plans regularly while they focus on living, dreaming and creating their own legacies.
“I can’t wait to surprise 50 people in the US with an AffloVest. This is a high-tech treatment that will change the quality of life for those who use it. I’m so grateful to AffloVest and the other Legacy Project sponsors who have made this a reality!”
— Colton Underwood, Founder, Legacy Foundation
How Will The 50 Recipients Be Chosen?
Anyone can apply for, or nominate a friend or loved one in the United States to receive one of the 50 AffloVests. The Legacy Foundation’s selection committee will review applications and nominations to choose recipients. International Biophysics, maker of the AffloVest, will not be part of the selection process in any way. The review team will consider many elements including financial need (including whether insurance denied a claim), potential impact on the quality of life of the recipient, enthusiasm and the compelling or unique nature of the applicant’s story.
