Our Mission
Push2Inspire’s mission is to encourage others to give of themselves and serve. To reach our goal, we stage a series of inclusive events through which we push and pull adaptive athletes who may not otherwise be able to propel themselves.
Push2Inspire's founder and lead athlete, Greg Simony says, “With these events I hope to reach those who may be sitting at home struggling with self-absorbed issues. I want to inspire them to realize that by putting in an effort to help others they will incidentally help themselves. But to be clear, I don’t want them to necessarily do triathlons or endurance events, I simply want them to find a passion of their own, embrace it and do something positive for others. Help Yourself, By Helping Others.”
We strive to help end the social, physical and economic isolation of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The finish line for us is inclusion for all.
