“Adaptive sports across the board break down stereotypes and prejudices that people have. It’s changing perceptions. It’s changing stereotypes.” Paralympic gold medalist David Wagner is empowering athletes with physical disabilities through gym access from the CAF and @GoEOSfit partnership! [Video description: A person wearing athletic gear and a Team USA sweatshirt transfers from a vehicle to a wheelchair and enters a gym with another person. Shots of him are shown speaking directly to camera, laughing, high-fiving someone and exercising using weight machines and free weights alongside others. There are shots of another person in a suit speaking directly to camera and many people doing various sports at an outdoor athletic event before a large check is presented in front of an EōS Fitness backdrop.] #TeamCAF #Paralympics

Meet Milena and her brand-new R1 Carbon Bike from Top End! 🚴 Thanks in part to a CAF grant, she’s hitting the road in style… and of course, staying true to herself with that neon yellow pop! 💛 [Video description: A person unboxing and putting together a new racing wheelchair, then riding on it in a gym and on a track with other people.] #TeamCAF #KeepPushing

A huge thank you to Rotary Club of Carmel Valley for their generous $2,000 donation to CAF! 💙 After hearing Tisa share her personal experience as a USAT paratriathlete, a group of students including her daughter, Maven, chose CAF for their nonprofit presentation project at @CarmelUnified River Elementary. Following a vote by 4th and 5th grade students, their project was selected! We’re so grateful for this incredible support and inspired by these young changemakers helping create more adaptive sports opportunities. 🙌 #TeamCAF #RotaryClub

"I'm here to try to get active and get back to the place I was before my surgery," said Kelly, who was granted a new @OssurCorp prosthetic running leg at our Össur + CAF Running & Mobility Clinic in Washington DC. "This is one more blessing for me to get back in shape and get back to the person who I was before." With improved comfort and range of motion, Kelly can bounce back better!

Xavian, a high school senior from Marysville, Washington, is a determined and resilient athlete. After losing his right leg below the knee in a firework accident two years ago, he quickly returned to highly competitive wrestling and is striving to return to running and swimming. A specialized prosthesis from CAF and @OssurCorp will enhance his mobility and performance, enabling him to pursue his athletic goals and inspire others facing similar challenges! #TeamCAF #LifeWithoutLimitations #LimbDifference #AmputeeStrong

"To be able to run means everything," says Jacobe, who received an @OssurCorp prosthetic running leg at the Össur + CAF Running and Mobility Clinic in San Antonio. "I've always wanted to compete in a small marathon. I think this would be the first step to being able to achieve something like that."

Gavin replaced a loaner basketball wheelchair with a new @Per4max thanks to a CAF grant, and now he’s able to train more effectively, move with precision, and compete at a higher level! “Disability doesn’t make me less human—it just exposes how limited the world is when it refuses to adapt,” he says. After interacting with Gavin at numerous CAF clinics and events in the SoCal region, our team is thrilled to see him thriving in a sport he loves. #TeamCAF #WCBB
