Get out in the community and show people of all abilities the potential to lead an active lifestyle. Disabled and able-bodied, we all have challenges but it is the goal of the IM ABLE Foundation to demonstrate it doesn't have to be a limiting factor. Founder Chris Kaag does speaking engagements to show that regardless of his wheelchair he maintains an active and fulfilling life. Handcycling, working out at his gym, Corps Fitness, and kayaking are all examples of how he is doing what he promotes...getting up and moving. Through these actions individuals will hopefully look at themselves and ask why they make excuses as to why they're not active.
Headquartered in Wyomissing, PA we "help where we live" but have expanded to outside the area when we come across programs that mirror our philosophy in helping individuals of all ages and abilities.

TELL US YOUR STORY
All of us at one time or another have faced challenges. Some are bigger than others and when we are faced with these challenges we draw strength from knowing there are others out there that have picked themselves up and have continued to lead the life they choose. Please share the story of yourself or someone you know who has been there and has overcome and inspires those around them with his or her determination. Your story can help someone who is not sure how to take that next step and just might be able to help them take it.
