PATH-WAY Providing Access To Happiness

Our primary goal is to provide the means for individuals with physical disabilites to gather, socialize and network.

Our secondary goals include:
1. Support organizations that share our mission for inclusive activities.

Our organization provides social events that are inclusive and accessible for individuals of various abilities.
Examples of events include: Seasonal social outings, Group events to sporting events i.e. Red Sox game, hockey game, adaptive sailing, adaptive bocce tournament.



Our organization provides weekly virtual events that allow individuals throughout the US to socialize, network and play virtual games.


Our organization looks to sponsor events and support other organizations that share our mission to provide inclusive activities to individuals with physical disabilities.

In order to continue to meet our goals our organization must continue to:

Seek and receive funding for our programs: So far our funding is mainly through public donations, small fundraisers, and a limited number of very generous donors. This predicted income allows us to maintain our current programs, but we will have to continue to seek financial assistance to maintain and grow our program.

Continue to OUTREACH to spread the work about our organization and its programs: We continue to grow a database of individuals who may benefit from our programs. We maintain a webpage, send out e-mails, newsletters, and keep a Facebook page to keep participants informed.


Today we are financially stable, have a dedicated board, and great excitement to maintain our mission.

We have successfully run monthly events to bring individuals with physical disabilites and their families together.
Each year our events have had increased participation and our database for participants continues to grow

We have provided 13 scholarships of $1000. to individuals with a physical disability attending a post-high school education since we initiated this program in 2017.

We have provided over 10,000. in financial assistance through our Providing a Way to Help Fund since we initiated the program in 2019.

We have added two new board members to our organization in 2020 bringing our total number of board members to five.

We have transferred our activities to a virtual format during the pandemic. This has allowed us to include participants from other states.

WHAT's NEXT:

We hope to continue with our mission to promote inclusion and participation for individuals with physical disabilities to engage in social and networking opportunities.

We hope to continue to collaborate with like organizations to share resources. (Many of our events would not be possible without the cooperation of other organizations who also share the mission of inclusion.)

We have returned to in-person events this year. We have expanded our organization to GA.

We have sponsored our first event - providing financial support to an organization that provides adaptive sports opportunities to individuals with physical disabilities.

We will continue to seek financial means to keep our mission a reality.
