Help the 20% of Australians with a disability to shine through sports & community programs
Since 1990, Paralympics Australia has removed barriers for people with a disability to participate in sport, changed perception around the capabilities of people living with a disability, and changed the self-perception of Australians living with a disability.
20% of Australians live with a disability, with 1 in 3 adults experiencing high psychological stress.
Paralympics Australia is a registered charity and rely on funding from corporates, government and individual supporters like you to help foster and grow the Paralympic movement. This includes providing financial grants for para-athletes to address the most significant challenge – the high and often unobtainable cost of equipment required.
