Our next project: a new nonprofit, wheelchair-accessible gym in Kansas City.

Health and Wellness Services: By establishing baseline fitness measurements, members can accurately plan and track progress. Camps: Through a wide range of wheelchair-specific activities and mindset-expanding programs, we will help those in wheelchairs set and achieve goals so they can become their best possible selves.
