Invacare Announced Sponsorship Agreement With Coach Rob Mendez

Invacare Corporation (NYSE: IVC) is pleased to announce its sponsorship agreement with Rob Mendez, the inspirational high school football coach and 2019 ESPY winner of the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance. Mendez, who was born with tetra-amelia syndrome, which left him without arms or legs, didn’t allow his differences to limit his opportunities.

Mendez developed a passion for football by playing Madden video games, using his chin and collarbone to manage the controller. He later worked for years as an assistant football coach at various schools, with a dream of one day becoming a head coach. In 2018, he was finally given the opportunity, leading the Bay Area Prospect High’s junior varsity team to an incredible 8-2 season and championship game appearance.

“We are proud to have Coach Rob Mendez represent Invacare. His courage, perseverance, and positive attitude drive us every day in Making Life’s Experiences Possible® for all of our end users,” said Matt Monaghan, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Invacare.

Mendez is mobile because of his Invacare® Storm Series® Torque™ power wheelchair equipped with Adaptive Switch Labs (ASL) technology. His inspirational saying, “WHO SAYS I CAN’T,” echoes the Invacare theme of Yes, you can®. Learn more about his inspirational story at: https://bit.ly/IVCMendez
