NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — After a traumatic injury just days after her 20th birthday, Madison Richardson faced a long and painful recovery.

Instead of giving up, she turned her pain into purpose, becoming a powerful advocate for stronger workers' compensation laws in Tennessee.

That’s why White House's Madison is this week's My Hero.

Thanks to Bart Durham Injury Law, they will donate $250 to Madison's choice of charity, which is the Shepherd Center.
