From the Depths: Jimmy Colson's rags to riches (and impact) story

From Down and Out to Helping Those Who Have Lost Limbs to Get Back on Their Feet and Children with Tough Upbringings to Have a Better Chance at Life

For so long I struggled to find my way and get past survival mode to flourish mode where I can give back to others and give back to the world, more purposefully. I am finally on the right path.”
— Jimmy Colson

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, USA, January 15, 2019 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Jimmy Colson grew up forced to beg for money, return stolen merchandise, and dig through dumpsters by his heroin-addicted mother and her criminal friends. Most days Jimmy and his siblings went hungry because any money brought in went toward the next drug fix.

Now a parent himself, Jimmy Colson is committed to breaking the cycle by creating the best childhood possible for his son and daughter and by giving back beyond the four walls of his home so that other children don’t have to experience the same troubled upbringing he had.

Although he never graduated from high school, Jimmy Colson worked hard to become an American Board Certified Orthotist who owns POP Prosthetics, one of the fastest-growing orthotics and prosthetics companies in Las Vegas. They literally get clients who have lost limbs -- including veterans, children, and athletes -- back on their feet.

With a passion for helping the community locally and abroad, POP Prosthetics leads shoe donation initiatives for the homeless, supports cancer foundations, and sponsors underprivileged families every year.

“For so long I struggled to find my way and get past survival mode to flourish mode where I can give back to others and give back to the world, more purposefully. I am finally on the right path, and so is our business and team.” - Jimmy Colson

Quote from From the Depths: A Journey from Addiction, Abuse, and Homelessness to Positively Impacting the World, published in partnership with Laura Petersen, Founder of Copy That Pops. The book hit #1 bestseller on Amazon in four categories the week of November 26, 2018, during its launch.

Jimmy Colson is on a mission to show others with a troubled past that they too can achieve success and have a positive impact on the world.

It’s time to break the cycle.
