Story

A little over a year ago, I started volunteering for an amazing organization called Kids Enjoy Exercise Now (KEEN LA) where we play sports with kids who have disabilities. We provide them a safe space to completely be themselves and interact with one another.

This organization is really special to me since sports have always played such a vital role in my life, and especially the last few years dealing with all my chronic health issues. I currently lead the Zumba sessions every other Saturday and seeing the way these kids smile every time we are out on the court playing is a feeling unlike any other.

I have grown extremely close with these one of a kind children, so giving back to this incredible organization is the very least I can do. Please help me raise as much money as I can before Sunday, March 18th and spread the word!! Thank you guys for all your constant support!

KEEN has been providing physical activity opportunities for one of the hardest to serve populations of cognitively and physically disabled children and young adults in our communities for 25 years! Our KEEN athletes have autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome and other significant physical or intellectual disabilities.   For our athletes who have extensive cognitive and/or physical disabilities or those who are nonverbal, KEEN is the only organization that can accommodate their special needs.  

Join Team KEEN 25!  Help us continue to celebrate ability and support inclusion for kids with disabilities.

About the charity

KEEN USA (Kids Enjoy Exercise Now) is a national, volunteer-led non-profit organization that provides one-to-one exercise and recreational programs for children and young adults with cognitive and physical disabilities at no cost to their families or caregivers. KEEN’s Mission Empower youth with disabilities by providing free, non-competitive one-to-one programs of exercise, fitness and fun, led by volunteer coaches. KEEN’s Vision Foster confidence, self-esteem and community inclusion for youth with disabilities; strengthen communities through education of volunteers; and provide families with respite and a supportive network. KEEN provides physical activity opportunities for one of the hardest to serve populations of cognitively and physically disabled children and young adults in our communities. Our KEEN athletes have autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome and other significant physical or intellectual disabilities. For our athletes who have extensive cognitive and/or physical disabilities or those who are nonverbal, KEEN is often the only organization that can accommodate their special needs. The benefits of KEEN are three-fold. KEENs programs provide our athletes with exercise and physical activity, parents or caregivers are provided with much needed respite, and our volunteers come to understand and accept differences in others and are empowered to become community volunteer leaders.
