Make a Difference

Science holds the promise to transform lives — and YOU can be a part of that change.

Imagine a world where every child with a disability gets the best possible start in life, grows up with greater independence, and where adults with disabilities age with dignity. Together, we can make that future a reality. Join a passionate community of Changemakers — people just like you — who are making a lasting difference in the lives of people with disabilities.

As a Changemaker, you’ll:

  • Vote on a research project: You’ll get the chance to vote on a study that addresses what’s most important to you.
  • Shape the future of research: We believe science works best when it’s shaped by the people it serves. By participating, you’ll have a role in shaping the future of Changemakers grants.
  • Get updates just for you: Join us for invitation-only webinars with researchers and fellows who will provide the most up-to-date progress on Changemakers grants.
  • Fuel progress: You’ll be a part of research and technology that transforms everyday life for people with disabilities and society as a whole.

Every dollar raised fuels progress, and every person who joins our community helps accelerate the pace of change. Together, we’re not just imagining a better future for children and adults with disabilities — we’re creating it.
