Ozark Adaptive Sports Association (OZASA)

"As a parent of a young child living with a disability, the benefits of his involvement in adaptive sports is immeasurable. He not only has fun, stays active, learns new skills, & builds confidence; but he develops a profound sense of belonging. It has been truly wonderful to witness him develop friendships & find mentors among the OZASA community." —Haley Kirschner

Will You Help Us Drive Change in Northwest Arkansas?

At Ozark Adaptive Sports Association (OZASA), we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience the joy and empowerment of adaptive recreation. For over 5 years, we've been bringing individuals with disabilities together through sports like adaptive biking, wheelchair basketball, and more. However, to continue growing our programs and reaching more communities, we need your help.

We are raising $60,000 to purchase a Ford Transit utility van, which will be used to haul our adaptive sports equipment and pull our trailer to events across Northwest Arkansas. This vehicle is essential for us to continue providing recreational opportunities to individuals with disabilities throughout the region.

Your donation will help ensure that we can continue providing life-changing recreational opportunities for people with disabilities, and it will directly support our efforts to purchase the van and expand our reach.

How Your Support Makes a Difference

Every donation helps us get closer to our goal of raising $60,000 for the van, which will be crucial in expanding our programs. Here's how your gift can make a lasting impact:

• $25 helps us fuel the van for a local community event, bringing adaptive sports to those who need it most.
• $50 helps us reach a new community event with the adaptive equipment needed for the activity.
• $100 provides maintenance to keep the van running smoothly for transporting gear to various locations.
• $250 covers the cost of one trip for transporting adaptive sports equipment to underserved areas.
• $500 helps us expand our programs by allowing us to bring more equipment to more events each month.
• $1,000 covers a significant portion of the van's purchase cost, helping us get closer to our goal of $60,000.

Why This Van Matters:

This van is more than just a vehicle - it’s a vital tool that will help us expand our programs and serve more individuals in need. Without reliable transportation, we can’t reach the communities that need us most. The Ford Transit van will allow us to safely transport adaptive equipment like bikes, sports chairs, and other sports gear to events and activities all over Northwest Arkansas, helping us serve more participants and create lasting change in our community.

Together, we can drive the change that makes adaptive recreation available to everyone!

Thank you for your support, and for helping us create a more inclusive and active community.
