Narrative

The New Balance Foundation Adaptive Sports Program at Franciscan Children's offers children with disabilities the opportunity to join in sports and active recreation in a fun and safe space.  The program promtes the learning of new skills, social opportunities and moderate to vigorous physical activity to maintain and improve health and fitness.

Most activities are open to all children with disabilities in the Greater Boston Area.  We try to offer these programs at to little or no cost to members and their families.  We could not do this without our generous donors.
