40 years ago, Powered to Move Founder set out on a 5605.8 wheelchair trek from Fairbanks, Alaska to Washington, DC, Mike King, a paraplegic came home with a growing love for adapted sports and a growing faith and desire to serve those with physical and intellectual disabilities.
After years of competing on an elite level in wheelchair sports, Mike is on a new adventure with his wife Sharyn. It’s called Powered to Move (P2M). To learn more about our awesome programs visit – www.poweredtomove.org.
Through P2M people with physical and intellectual disabilities are finding ways to live full, healthy and purposeful lives. Our programs are filled with community, connection and fun ways to stay active.
Powered to Move – Rolling On Campaign
Since 2013, Powered to Move has empowered individuals of all abilities by providing access to adaptive fitness, social connection, and life-changing resources.
In 2024, we opened the doors to the P2M Community Center, where we’ve built an inclusive space—complete with adaptive fitness classes, a micro-gym with specialized equipment, and community-building events like game nights and social gatherings.
For over a decade, we’ve been rolling forward with one mission:
“To put Christ’s love in action by creating spaces for people with disabilities to move, connect, and thrive.”
Now, we’re asking for your help to keep the momentum going.
Your gift supports our vital programs:
Adapted fitness classes and AMP’d Camp
Transportation to and from activities
Handcycling & Wingman Racing
Social events that build confidence, friendships, and joy
Help us continue the vision.Help others move, connect, and belong.
👉 Give today to keep us Rolling On—because everyone deserves the chance to move forward.
Putting Christ's Love in Action by providing people affected by disabilities opportunities to stay active and increase physical, emotional and spiritual well-being
As we Roll Forward we would like to raise $10,000 to be matched by a very generous donor, giving us $20,000 to be used in our Transportation Fund, Adapted Fitness program, Group Fitness and Social activities at the center and our Racing program.
Powered to Move does not discriminate in the administration of its policies, admission, tuition assistance or other programs.
We believe that every person is valuable and should be treated with dignity and respect.
