RAD ADAPTIVEGrant and Funding Resources
|
At RAD-Innovations we regularly work with a variety of organizations that offer grants and funding. Through our RAD
Adaptive programming we help connect people with resources that can help them get rolling again. We also offer video fittings and demos!
We are happy to speak with you if you're looking to connect the dots between the adaptive cycling equipment that suits your needs and the opportunities for funding that fit your situation. Please explore the resources that we have gathered and/or give us a call at 802-382-0093.
