Meet our August Veteran Spotlight, Anita Willingham, a dedicated U.S. Army Senior Supply Sergeant with the rank of Sergeant First Class (SFC). Her service and perseverance make her a valued member of our BlazeSports community.
Since joining BlazeSports in 2017, Anita has embraced adaptive sports, including rowing, swimming, cycling, pickleball, cornhole, and wheelchair basketball with the Lady Ballers. These activities have helped her stay active while building friendships and finding a strong sense of belonging.
