Welcome to Hearts for Hunter!
Hello Everyone!
First and foremost, I would like to say Welcome to Hearts for Hunter! This site is your avenue for providing support for PFC Hunter Levine!
My name is Blake Meaux. I am the founder and executor of Hearts for Hunter. I want to thank you all for the support and words of encouragement that you all continue to provide. Hunter is going through a tough time in his life, but your support is very uplifting to him.
As you know, it is our duty as Americans to provide support to our soldiers when they are in need. Hunter has a lot to go through in the near future and needs us to be his backbone until he can get back on his feet.
The reality is that Hunter may never regain his sight. The blast shattered his face, causing him to lose one eye while severely damaging the other. During surgery in the remaining eye, doctors were able to recover 30-40% of his retina, but there is no guarantee that this eye will become functional.
There are many things that will be provided to him by the military, as well as many things that will not. 100% of the donations we receive are going towards Hunter’s future and recovery and I hope that you can join me in supporting him.
My goal is to make his recovery as smooth as possible. We will get him back on his feet so he can become a successful contributor to society and live as much as a normal life as possible
Before Hunter left for Iraq, he came over to our house for a small going away celebration. During the party, my brother and I were discussing with Hunter the dangers he was soon to face. He courageously told us that “He would die for us if need be.” This comment stuck with me because he said it with no hesitation or fear as if it was his duty to protect us.
When Hunter was wounded, I immediately took action to build a support system for him. If he was willing to sacrifice himself for our well-being, then I could only return the favor. I have spent many hours working for Hunter because it is the right thing to do. I refuse to sit back and assume that the job will get done. Instead, we together will make it happen with your continued support.
I will keep everyone posted on Hunters progress. He and his family are very grateful for the support that you have all provided. It is amazing what we can accomplish together!!
Thank you,
Blake Meaux
