ADA Accessible Beaches
The beach is a place for rest, relaxation and rejuvenation. It’s a place to spend quality time with family and friends; but for millions of people around the world, getting through the sand is incredibly difficult or simply impossible. The Forward Foundation is working to fund the installation of mobility mats to create accessible beaches for all.

The mission of this program is to dismantle institutional racism by providing equity for Black Americans in engineering fields.
