This site is dedicated to Kevin Chambers and his family. Kevin is the
eldest son of Tara and Don Chambers and brother of Brian Chambers.
Kevin grew up in Hopedale, MA at the baseball fields as well as the
hockey rinks in the surrounding communities. He is the young person
with the warm smile and personality to match. When you went to the
baseball field he was there along with his entire family…all of the time.
Why all the time…? Because his mother and father spent countless
hours donating their time along with others to coordinate and run a very
successful, instructional, and fun program for the children of Hopedale.
Kevin attended Hopedale Elementary School and graduated in 2002
from Blackstone Valley Technical High School in Upton, MA where he
studied to become a plumber. After completing high school Kevin
started his apprenticeship as a plumber and was working with R. A.
Plumbing.
August 19, 2007 while at the home of a friend, Kevin suffered a severe
spinal cord injury from diving into a pool which resulted in paralysis. At
the present time, Kevin is at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital.
Given the severity of his injury and the enormity of this lifelong financial
expense, Kevin’s family, friends, and Hopedale residents are coming
together to help in any way they can. Various fund raising events have
been planned for the coming months sponsored and manned by these
volunteers. The purpose of this site is to support those efforts by
publicizing upcoming events and to serve as a communication medium
for those assisting in fund raising efforts.
Donations may be sent to:

need help. If you have experience with a PCA or know of someone that
works as a PCA that has some available time, please contact Tara at
