2025 Class Project: PLAY WITHOUT LIMITS

Leadership Burbank’s Class of 2025 is proud to unveil their class project: PLAY WITHOUT LIMITS: Empowering Possibilities with Adaptive Sports.

With a focus on inclusivity and empowerment, Play Without Limits aims to provide specialized sports wheelchairs and equipment, enabling individuals with disabilities to participate in both competitive and recreational sports. The project seeks to enrich the lives of participants by offering them the joy, sense of community, and personal empowerment that adaptive sports provide.

This project will support The City of Burbank’s new Adaptive Sports Program by raising funds and awareness to expand opportunities for athletes of all abilities.

Why Play Without Limits:

The City of Burbank’s new Adaptive Sports Program already plays a crucial role in empowering athletes of all abilities, offering accessible sports opportunities that promote physical activity, teamwork, and confidence. However, the availability of specialized adaptive equipment is limited and the City’s goal is to expand the program in preparation for the Paralympic Games hosted for the first time in Los Angeles in 2028. To address this need, Leadership Burbank’s Class of 2025 is committed to help remove barriers, open doors, and enhance the overall experience for more adaptive athletes.

How You Can Support Play Without Limits:

Leadership Burbank’s Class of 2025 is calling on community members, local businesses, and corporate sponsors to support the Play Without Limits class project through donations, sponsorships, and participation in upcoming fundraising events. Every contribution will bring the program one step closer to its goal of equipping adaptive athletes with the tools they need to play without limits.

Any donation amount will help the class reach their goals.

If you would prefer to write a check, please make it out to “Leadership Burbank.” Please be sure to put “Class Project” in the memo line. Mail to Play Without Limits c/o Leadership Burbank, 200 W. Magnolia Blvd., Burbank, CA 91502.
