In the unprecendented year of 2020, we were called to exhibit new levels of creativity and we worked tirelessly to find ways to fuse our passion for helping those with disabilities with ways to serve marganilized communities. We can't wait to see how our new initiatives grow! A few updates from Team DBNR as we move into the New Year: 1 We're officially launching the Help Me Fit Mobile in the Spring of 2021!

How can we collaborate with you Last year was hard on everyone. It was even harder on the marginalized groups #disabledbutnotreally represents. We are working tirelessly to help people with disabilities see their true potential. The goal is to challenge them to push past their mental and physical limits to help them gain the courage, confidence, and competence they need to live their best life. Our foundation would love to collaborate with you this year to make this a realit...y for the broader disabled community. The need us!! For collaborations email [email protected]

That dream you've got only becomes your reality by the work you put towards it; and that work starts from within. #taketherisk

Please help us spread the word! Sharing this fundraiser, will help us just as much as a monetary donation. Your support means the world!... Disabled But Not Really (DBNR) advocates for the disabled community by raising awareness about disabilities, promoting mental and physical wellness, and engaging diverse audiences through local and national events. People deserve to know they are more than their circumstances.

Maybe it’s the time of year or maybe it’s because there's so much to thank them for, but we want to take the time to say thank you to @queereye for giving us the opportunity to reach people around the with our message. Since the show we've been... Shedding light on what it looks like to be disabled and the challenges we face. Showing the disabled community how to accept and overcome those challenges.... Encouraging seemingly ordinary individuals to achieve extraordinary lifestyle changes. & Hearing and sharing the stories of so many amazing people that have. DBNR’s mission is to instill in the underserved disabled community, a physically limitless mindset that breeds courage, confidence, and competence. This opportunity helped us spread our mission and our message with the world in a time when it was needed most. We always dreamed of having our very own inclusive gym that enables those with disabilities to work out alongside their loved ones... An environment where anyone that is limited by circumstances beyond their control has a safe and inspiring place for growth. And then 2020 happened. Given the challenges of the pandemic and the inequalities faced by a number of marginalized groups across the nation DBNR is bringing all of that INTO the city! #HelpMeFitMobile is a program designed for in-person impact within KC’s neighborhoods. Our talented trainers will bring our trailer-sized gym and lead adaptive workout routines that inform and inspire limitless mindsets and healthy lifestyles. Taking the #helpmefitchallenge nationwide was just a dream before, with the help of a few of our friends, we are in the process of making this a reality sooner than we could have ever imagined. We couldn’t go without thanking the Fab Five for the part they played in this and we are excited to continue taking you on this journey with us. People deserve to know they are more than their circumstances. @iamweshamilton
