Not just survivorship, THRIVERSHIP!
Jothy was just presented with this award by the Institute For Sport and Social Justice. It is the Hero Among Us award for the work this foundation does and has done for ten years since it was founded in April 2013. The Institute's interest is in people and organizations that use their sports focus and platform to help people and create a more just society. In our case, it is the focus on restoring the self esteem of those, especially children, who become disabled.
How WSICF Works
When people experience illnesses and accidents that result in long-term physical disabilities, the goal is always to survive. But what happens after you survive? What happens when you leave the hospital? What if walking is just not enough? Will the insurance company buy you a sitski, a hand cycle, a running leg, a waterproof surfing leg? Not likely.
That is where The Who Says I Can’t Foundation steps in to help. We provide equipment, coaching and follow up so that the outcome is outstanding.
WSICF partners with supportive prosthetics and adaptive equipment providers for running legs, sit skis, hand cycles and much more.
