Through these experiences we are about changing perspective from programmed vulnerable dependency to confident self-determination. If you or your organization would consider sponsoring an event or disabled participants with a tax deductible donation, contact Inclusive Adventures so we can create a custom tailored experience as a thank you for your support!
