No Barriers is a powerful community of modern-day pioneers who promote innovation, education, and assistive technologies that create transformative life experiences and inspire people with challenges to live full and active lives.

No Barriers believes in the possible for people like 28-year-old Chanda, a quadriplegic who recently learned to rock-climb thanks to No Barriers. “What I love about No Barriers,” she said, “is that I am allowed and trusted to do this on my own. It is liberating, empowerment, hope.”

Help us empower people to shatter their personal barriers.“No Barriers” is our approach to life. We believe that every person has a spark for adventure that is worth igniting – and one of the powerful ways we do that is through the No Barriers Summit, an international event where cutting-edge technologies and techniques combine with challenging outdoor pursuits to redefine what is possible for people living with disabilities.

Although the average cost per Summit participant is $250, we pass along only $75 in registration fees. No Barriers USA assumes responsibility for the remaining costs and raises the balance through donations and sponsorships. Won’t you help? Together, we can shatter all the barriers.

How will your donation be used?

• $175 covers No Barriers’ cost for one deserving Summit participant.

• $600 helps us to cover expenses for an adventure clinic, such as adaptive mountain biking for wheelchair users.

• $1,300 brings inspirational and powerful people to the Summit, such as Maysam Ghovanloo, Ph.D., inventor of a life-changing Tongue Drive System that enables people with high-level spinal cord injuries to control a wheelchair or a computer with their tongue.

• $2,500 pays all expenses for a child and his family to attend, like 9-year-old triple amputee James (below, on hand cycle), who says, “It doesn’t mean you can’t do that much stuff [having a disability]. You can do anything you set your mind to.”
