After Richie received a life changing knee transplant from a 14 year old boy, he was inspired to give back in his honour and began the registered charity the ‘Hark Angel’ Foundation, which has already built 8 schools out of its mission to build 100 schools in developing nations all over the world. Richie’s near-death experience saw him battle through eight operations, a knee transplant and a golden staph infection. But this is only the beginning, not the end of his story.
