True leaders empower others — and learn through experience. As the only national fraternity to establish and maintain its own non-profit organization, we pride ourselves in taking the lead when we see a need and have set the fraternal standard for hands-on, service-based leadership training. Through The Ability Experience you are taught how to be an effective leader and work better as a team. And you learn that it really is far greater to give than receive.
Volunteer Partnership
The Ability Experience is investing $75,000 in establishing new volunteer partnerships! Any chapter that does not have an existing volunteer partnership just needs to work with The Ability Experience to find a local partner. Once the first event is scheduled, The Ability Experience will send a $1,000 check to present at the event!

The Ability Experience Challenges
The Ability Experience Challenges are your way to help impact the lives of people with disabilities across the country while challenging yourself mentally and physically. These events are open to anyone that want to challenge themselves in order to promote the abilities of all people.
Through The Ability Experience Challenge events, we are providing opportunities for people of all abilities to come together to complete a common goal of a 5k, 10k, half marathon or marathon. Whether you decide to walk, run, or roll, you can help provide an opportunity for athletes with disabilities to share in the same or similar experience. Funds raised through these events help provide more inclusive events for people of all abilities.
