Welcome to u&i Strive - Fostering Maximized Independence
Our Mission
Our mission is to enable and maximize Independence for persons with disabilities and include their families.
How we deliver on that mission is as follows:
- We find and collaborate with the most qualified and certified Ski & Ride Schools and Instructors
- We seek grants and funding used for:
- Individuals and their close family/caregivers to get PSIA Ski and Ride Lessons
- Equipment to be used for lessons
- Reduce participation barriers: Transportation, Family Inclusion, Food and other expenses
- Where appropriate, we partner with other 501c3 Charities that demonstrate a commitment to enable and maximize Independence for persons with disabilities.
Some people prefer coaching that empowers them and their family towards maximized independence.
This is our Mission and our Value.
We can use your help!
We are looking for:
- Sources of Grants and Funding where for Adaptive Ski and Snowboard gear. We work with the provider to ensure that the beneficiaries meet the donors specific requirements and the donor has full transparency to the benefits they enabled.
- A CPA to help us navigate and stay completely compliant and transparent with our operation's and all regulations
- Donations to help us fund our operational expenses, while low, these costs are currently coming out of operating funds that could go to getting families out on the slopes
- Donations to fund Apparel and Swag
