Help 2x the Athletes Reach their Dream Start Line this #GivingTuesday

Support Achilles this Giving Tuesday as we continue to transform the lives athletes with disabilities all over the world like Katherine of Achilles NYC who says of her weekly workouts, “When I’m here, I’m not a disabled girl, or someone in a wheelchair. I’m just another athlete and handcyclist, and I love that.”

All donations $1-for-$1 will be matched up to $50,000 through December 31 as part of the MGL Challenge. That means your gift will have double the impact.

This year, the Achilles community came together and continued to persevere through the ongoing challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to return to in-person events, like our Resilience Relay, Hope and Possibility 4-Miler, and the Freedom Team’s fall marathon tour, reminding us just how strong the Achilles spirit is. None of this would have been possible without you and we’re calling on you to help us finish the year Achilles Strong.

Your gift will help fund our grassroots chapter network as well as programs like the Achilles Freedom Team which serves wounded military personnel and veterans; Achilles Kids which provides training, race opportunities, and an in-school program for children with disabilities; and the TriAchilles Team which expands our running program into biking and swimming.

Thank you for helping us create more inclusive and accessible start lines for athletes.
