Wellington, FL – Dec. 18, 2025
The Kevin Babington Foundation (KBF) is proud to announce the first performer for Kevin’s Rockstars, the Foundation’s highly anticipated fundraising event taking place on March 8, 2026. After hinting at a lineup of special talent in a prior announcement, KBF is thrilled to reveal that the Young Singers of the Palm Beaches (YSPB) will officially open a series of exciting performer announcements to come.
Kevin’s Rockstars is more than a night of entertainment — it is a celebration of resilience, community, and the power of coming together to support show jumping athletes with life-altering spinal cord injuries.

About Kevin Babington Foundation:
In late August 2019, Kevin experienced a life-altering moment when he suffered a complete spinal cord injury following a fall during the 2019 Grand Prix at the Hampton Classic Horse Show in Bridgehampton, NY, United States. In early September, Kevin underwent a critical surgery to stabilize the vertebrae in his neck. By mid-October of that same year, he had made significant progress, transitioning from relying on a ventilator for breathing to facing the challenge of being paralyzed from the neck down. Remarkably, just two months later, Kevin began teaching from his wheelchair. Today, he remains on a determined journey, actively participating in experimental stem cell therapy, holding onto the hope of regaining movement below the neck.
This life-altering event marked the inception of the Kevin Babington Foundation, which was established in 2019. Kevin Babington Foundation (KBF) has been created to provide funding and support for Equestrian Show Jumping Athletes who sustain spinal injuries. In addition to providing financial assistance the foundation will also strive to educate riders, trainers and show organizers about the most current safety measures designed to reduce the risk of serious injuries which can occur while riding.
