Nov 7Frankie, we appreciate YOU!Behind every great event is someone who pours their heart into making it happen, and for our Summit Soirée, that person was Frankie! Not only did she take the lead in planning and executing an incredible fundraiser that raised more than $80,000, but she did it all while balancing one of her most important roles: being a mom! (Sometimes literally with a little one on her hip!) And the Soirée was just the grand finale of an incredible year. From growing our impact to bringing our community together, Frankie has poured so much time, energy, and heart into Catalyst Sports and the people we serve. Frankie, thank you for your leadership, dedication, creativity, and the countless hours behind the scenes that make this mission possible. We are so grateful for you and everything you've accomplished this year! Help us show Frankie some love! 👏💚Latest

About
Catalyst Sports is a chapter based, volunteer run, 501c3 non-profit organization that acts as an agent of change in the lives of people with physical disabilities and our communities. Adventure sports provide a fun and exciting platform for challenging ourselves mentally, physically and emotionally. When this challenge takes place alongside a supportive and encouraging community of people, we all discover our abilities, our need for each other and the importance of living active and healthy lives.
Each chapter has a unique community of participants and volunteers that run weekly, bi-weekly or monthly adventure programs throughout the year. Click the Locations tab above to find the Catalyst Sports community near you.
ACCESS: Through innovative adaptive equipment and with the support of trained volunteers, we break down the barriers that prevent people with disabilities from accessing adventure sports in their community.
COMMUNITY: All of our adventures take place alongside a supportive and inclusive community of people.
IMPACT: Our adventures impact the participants, the volunteers and the entire community. Through these programs, people with disabilities are empowered to discover their strength and abilities and everyone discovers that we all play a part.
Our mission is to give people with physical disabilities access to the life-changing impact of adventure within a supportive and inclusive community.
*We are passionate about creating access for people with disabilities
