The Alberta Paraplegic Foundation, established in 1987, is dedicated to funding scientific and community development projects related to spinal cord injury. Originating from Rick Hansen's Man in Motion World Tour, the foundation honors his achievements and aims to increase awareness of the potential of people with disabilities.
With an initial contribution of $2.6 million from the Alberta government, the foundation has grown to over $4 million, enabling funding for medical research, rehabilitation, wheelchair sports, and awareness programs. The APF focuses on innovative collaborative solutions and research programs to advance understanding of spinal cord operations.
