Transform Lives This Giving Season—Support Maine Adaptive!
As we close out another impactful year, we reflect on stories like Carol’s, a Maine Adaptive student whose journey embodies resilience and transformation.
Born with cerebral palsy, she didn’t let it stop her from pursuing adventure sports and community through recreation. After facing an amputation and most recently, a spinal cord injury, Carol’s determination never wavered.
Carol’s story is a powerful reminder that with the right tools, support, and spirit, sports can truly transform lives. Your year-end gift can help write more stories like hers. Together, we can empower people with disabilities to lead active, adventurous, and fulfilling lives.
