The Gift of Human Flight – Jimmy Ruggeiro

Skydive Chicago has teamed up with The Free Fall Foundation to give away a FREE tandem skydive and FREE video package to individuals who want to skydive but simply can’t afford the cost of skydiving.

Nominated by his boss, Scott Ayers, Jimmy Ruggeiro overcame drug addiction and multiple incarcerations to re-invent himself for both him and his family.  Jimmy works tirelessly these days to build his life around his family and friends and strengthen his life for the future.  Watch him tell his story here and feel the experience as he moves forward to another chapter of his life.

Skydive Chicago is partnering with The Free Fall Foundation in 2017 to help deliver the dream of skydiving to those in the Greater Chicagoland Area and surrounding communities for those who want to skydive but cannot muster the means to chase their dreams. Just like The Free Fall Foundation, Skydive Chicago believes everyone should feel the experience of skydiving. In fact, that is Skydive Chicago’s goal for all who walk through their doors and into their skies. The family and staff at Skydive Chicago live, work, and play in the world of skydiving because they believe in the freedom, family, and experiences that motivate them to push their boundaries to grow as skydivers and people as they return year after year to continue to give that gift to all who want to be a part of the experience.
