Swift Outdoor Accessible Recreation

Unlocking the Outdoors for Individuals with Disabilities

Life with paralysis used to offer little hope. Now, there’s SOAR.

We are committed to providing adaptive equipment, accessible recreation, and community-driven support — empowering individuals with disabilities to explore the great outdoors.

"I wanted to make sure you know from the bottom of my heart how much your donation towards the handicap van means to me! From heat box to brake lines going out, it was a constant worry... I am forever grateful for your help with purchasing this new van!"

Erica P.
"I would like to thank Swift Outdoor Accessible Recreation for providing me with a grant for an outdoor wheelchair. Without SOAR, I would not have been able to enjoy the hobbies my family and I like doing together. It has brough so much joy to my family."

Dan G.
"With your grant, we will be able to build five wheel chariots and surprise a long list of people with their new opportunity to get outside and fish, tail ride, and go places their regular chairs can't get to."

Ben H.
"I want to say thank you, truly, from the bottom of my heart for fulfilling my request for a Firefly. I am beyond excited. Because of SOAR, I will be able to have a level of independence I haven't experienced since my injury. "
