Advance Disability Inclusion

at Your Company

Whether you are a small company or a major brand in finance, healthcare, travel, pharmaceuticals or sports, we know you are made up of great people who believe in wellness and inclusivity. Employee resource groups (ERGs) are designed to enrich the experience as both an employee and as a person. Like you, athletes with disabilities bond together outside of sport. Achilles International often partners with ERGs at corporations large and small to make the benefits of the sport of running accessible to all.

Whether your group serves people with disabilities or is passionate about veterans or youth sports, come join our community and bring your energy. Achilles invites you to get involved either virtually or in-person whether at your office or in parks at our workouts.

Ways We Can Work Together

  • Guide training demos and inspirational talks with Achilles athletes with disabilities and opportunities to guide in major races. 

  • Keynote speakers, curated panels and athlete testimonials.

  • Group volunteer experiences at special workouts.

  • Volunteer engagement at races where Achilles has a major presence.

All are welcome to sign up for first time volunteering via our website or if you'd like a more specialized experience, please let us know and we would love to set up a call to discuss how to plan together. For partners wishing to reserve a private session we suggest a supplemental donation to secure your group's date and cater a more specialized experience for you. For questions and interest in teaming up with Achilles at your company, please contact Janet Patton, Vice President, Strategic Partnerships at jpatton@achillesinternational.org.
