May 6 - 10 | Moving the next generation forward.

Our mobility affects everything we do and every opportunity we have. This May, celebrate Mobility Awareness Month and #MoveForALTSO however you can, because you can — to transform the lives of 100 CoolKids.

How to Move.

There are two ways to Move and countless ways to transform lives. Together, we are raising $50,000 to provide 100 CoolKids in emerging countries with critical mobility treatment.

 

Move With Us: May 6 - 10 | 5,000 Mile Virtual Movement Competition

Help us move 5,000 miles in 5 days — walk, run, bike, swim, or roll. Create a team, join an existing one, or move at your own pace. Your $25 sign up donation will be applied to your fundraising goal. PLUS thanks to our event sponsor Right To Run, On's social impact program, the top mover and top fundraiser will win a voucher toward a pair of shoes of their choice. 

 

Move On The Court: May 9 | Pickleball Tournament at Court 16 FiDi

Calling all Pickleball enthusiasts: get ready to serve up some fun for a good cause. Eight teams of 4-6 players will compete in a round robin tournament while actively leveraging and reflecting on the difference mobility makes in their own lives. Form a team (donation minimum: $750) or sign up as a free agent (donation minimum: $125).

 

Every move you make and donation you raise will provide prosthetic limbs, orthotic braces, and appropriately fitted wheelchairs. Use your Mover Tools to boost your fundraising and awareness efforts and help change lives.

Why we Move.

Take a step forward for the next generation of CoolKids because you have the power to transform lives.

9 in 10 children living with disabilities in the developing world cannot afford treatment and, as a result, do not attend school. Since 2003, we have transformed the lives of nearly 23,000 children across emerging countries with access to free mobility aids.

Mobility is more than just getting from point A to point B. Mobility provides the most fundamental tools needed to break the cycle of poverty -- independence, access to education, community, and future gainful employment. See how mobility has transformed CoolKid Sopriya's life here

This May, #MoveForALTSO to help those who are still waiting for care. No matter how you choose to move, thank you so much!
