The Run To Breakthrough was born from a vision of an inclusive world.
Families in our community have faced daunting prognoses, being told by medical professionals that their loved ones “will never walk or talk”, that they “will not make it through the night”, or that they “will not have any quality of life.” These families don’t get to choose their challenges, yet, they embody resilience, break barriers, and prove limiting beliefs wrong each and every day. In September 2021, in the very first Run to Breakthrough, the community embarked on an 85-mile journey across Long Island, to prove that limits are only where we place them. This resilience was tested again in September 2023 with a 100-mile journey. Despite the weight of their challenges, these families choose hope and to believe… and that is really what this foundation is based upon. Our mission is dedicated to creating inclusive racing, and community events, and providing resources for families and individuals with disabilities and/or physical limitations. We envision expanding the reach of inclusive racing, organizing community events to bring families together, and awarding grants to enhance the quality of life for the entire family.
At Run To Breakthrough, our impact is profound and transformative.
Through our dedication to inclusion, we empower individuals and families facing disabilities to defy limitations, embrace resilience, and unlock their full potential. By organizing inclusive races, community events, and providing essential resources, we create opportunities for connection, support, and growth. Our efforts not only inspire hope but also drive tangible change, fostering a more inclusive and compassionate world where everyone can thrive. Join us in making a lasting impact and together, let’s break through barriers and build a brighter future for all.
