Why STEPtember Matters — and Why You Matter

Science and technology hold the power to transform lives, and by being part of STEPtember, you become part of that change. At CPARF, we’re focused on making life‑changing assistive technology more accessible, more affordable, and more available to people with disabilities.

10,000 steps is nothing for some. For someone with a disability, it can be the difference between getting to work, getting to school, getting to vote, getting through the day. This STEPtember, we're not just counting steps for fun, we're counting them because disability shouldn't decide who gets full access to life.

Your support helps us back early‑stage innovators who are building tools that make everyday life easier. These tools strengthen movement, support communication, improve navigation, and expand independence. They are the kinds of breakthroughs that can transform a person’s day, their confidence, and their future.

Every step you take supports your health, and every dollar raised drives the progress people with disabilities deserve. Sign up today!
