Pipe-Quest: Paraplegics In Pursuit of Excellence

To say the least, paralysis is daunting, as it deprives an individual of his or her perspective and aspiration. Learning this first hand, we established PIPEdreams & ConQUESTs; aimed to develop self-derived inner perseverance by providing guided mentoring, education, employment, recreation, opportunity and resources for people with disabilities. In an effort to keep the spark of re-inventing ourselves alive, PIPEdreams & ConQUESTs (PIPE-QUEST) is looking to help those in tragic circumstances find a new path in life. Our goal is to provide the support and resources needed at the early stages so that individuals can become self-sufficient, self-motivating role models who pay-forward the help they received by helping and inspiring others. This peer support model has been in place (albeit not as formalized) for decades. The karma-forward model will transcend boundaries and ideologies to establish a worldwide community of positive minded, forward-focused role models to help those in tragic circumstances.
