Most toys aren't designed with children with disabilities in mind. As a result, the vast majority of toys aren't accessible for children who have disabilities. Many classrooms, clinics, homes and other spaces lack the accessible play options needed for all children to be included in playtime.

FairPlay is working to solve this problem. Our multidisciplinary team of healthcare workers and engineers adapts toys to be accessible for all children and provides free training to help others do the same. We believe in the transformative impact of play, and we’re committed to ensuring that every child has access to toys that can help them develop and grow.

From July 14th-July 20th, you can support our mission of accessible play by participating in our second annual "Move Your Way" event. The rules (or lack thereof) are simple: move in a way that works for you, for as long as you want, wherever you want. Treat it like a typical 5k or host a dance party instead. A limited number of t-shirts and water bottles are available for registrants.

100% of proceeds go toward FairPlay's accessible play programs.

FAQ's:

Is this a 5K? Not quite. While traditional 5K races are great fundraisers, we wanted to host an event that was true to our core value: accessibility. Whether you run, walk, roll, or ride, we invite you to join us by moving in a way that is accessible and enjoyable to you.

What kinds of movement count for the event? Any kind! So far, we have had participants pledge to participate by running, walking, hiking, kayaking, scootering, rolling (in power chairs/wheelchairs), and dancing. Your way is the best way.
