Our Impact

Christine's Story

Jack's Story

Jack returned home from the No Barriers Summit and set an ambitious personal goal: swim to Alcatraz, despite being blind, and raise money to support our work. Jack’s Escape from Alcatraz mobilized a community to support our cause.

Kirk's Story

Despite breaking three vertebrae in a cycling accident leaving him paralyzed, Kirk is ready to get back on a mountain bike. He reconnects with his spirit of discovery as he embraces a new evolution of cycling.

WHAT’S WITHIN YOU IS STRONGER THAN WHAT’S IN YOUR WAY.

“The No Barriers Summit was an amazing experience. I was inspired and humbled as I heard the speakers' testimonies of how they worked through their barriers to accomplish what many would think was impossible. The participants openly shared their times of discouragement and setbacks, and how they persevered to reach their goals with the support of friends and family. They are role models of optimism and inner strength.”
