Step Into The Gap For Us.

Join Us This Giving Season and Step into the Gap of Care for Those Living with Paralysis! This End of Year we invite you to join us in making a profound difference in the lives of individuals living with paralysis. Each year, countless individuals face the daily challenges that come with paralysis, often struggling to access the therapy and resources they need to lead fulfilling lives. Your support can help cover the gap in essential services and physical therapy.

Here’s how your gift can Step into the Gap
1. Help us as we urgently need your help this year raising $40,000. We have been generously given a $20k matching grant until Dec 31! Every contribution below, no matter the size, can create a ripple effect of hope and empowerment.

2. Sign up for our January Gala and learn about upcoming Life Changing Technology as well as the Scholarship Fund we have for paralyzed veterans, youth and those financially hurting. Thank you for considering an immediate gift that can change lives. Together, we can provide hope, healing, and the promise of a brighter future for those impacted by paralysis.

Tasks are performed with and without stimulation to transfer the improved neuromuscular capacity into the home and community environment.
