August 10, 2022 News, Noteworthy, SCI, Videos"No matter what happens, I'm not going to stop. I'm going to keep moving forward"
Do you ever look at your phone and ask, "how in the world did I take this many pictures?" We do too. But we're never bummed that we're running out of space, because the pictures we take are the hard reminders of the amazing people we've been able to help.
As the Summer winds to a close, we want to share with you some of the most outstanding moments captured on film so far this year, spanning each one of our services to people living with paralysis or other disabling conditions.
If you see somebody you know, hit reply and let us know.
(Psst. By the way, if you scroll down, you'll find an exciting new video that we premiered at the Let'em Roll Gala. You're gonna love it!)
Newly Injured Support
It feels so good to be able to visit people in the hospital again! Each visit from a Triumph Ambassador means so much to the newly-injured patients in hospitals across Southern California. Along with our Care Packs filled with vital resources, we also offer peer mentorship, support groups, and encouragement for the journey ahead. LEARN MORE
Equipment Exchange
As they say, if you want to do the job right, you gotta have the right tools. And for many of the people we help, the wrong tools are what hold them back and prevent them from moving forward. From our warehouse headquarters in Valencia, we can provide anything from restored wheelchairs and ramps to commodes and exercise equipment free of charge for people who need our help. LEARN MORE
Adaptive Recreation
Physical activity is crucial to a person's recovery and ongoing health and wellness. So we provide adaptive recreation activities and events all year long to promote active lifestyles and community connection with family and friends. From wheelchair baseball, basketball, rugby and volleyball, to handcycling, skiing, archery and SCUBA, our sports programs have something for everyone. LEARN MORE
Grants Program
Sometimes people need a little extra boost to make that next leap forward in their journey or career. Through our Keep Moving Forward grant and Employment Assistant Award, we're able to help people in strategic ways by supporting their pursuits for mobility, independence, career advancement and even to start their own businesses. It's an incredible feeling to see someone's future open up to them in brand new ways. LEARN MORE
Inclusive Community
We aspire to create an Inclusive Community that is safe and welcoming for everybody who joins. Through Ambassador training, peer-mentorship and support groups, public speaking engagements, and active advocacy for people with disabilities, we continue to build relationships that make a difference both now and in the future.
