OUR STORY

Thanks to our work, SMA is a CHANGED disease.

One person can make a difference, and everyone should try.
WHAT WE DO
At Gwendolyn Strong Foundation, we work to fill in the gaps needed to create real change and build a more inclusive future for those with disabilities.
We provide practical family support, fund research, and are building the first inclusive playground in Santa Barbara. We work to inspire courage, foster inclusion and create a kinder world around the globe.
And above all else, we NEVER GIVE UP.

We have partnered with the City of Santa Barbara and Parks and Recreation to create the first inclusive playground in our region. We believe all children should have the opportunity to get to be one of the kids, to be at the center of fun, to belong. We think public playgrounds should celebrate our differences and the many ways we learn, and set the standard of the more tolerant, cooperative, and compassionate society that we all deserve.

We provide practical family support to help with the overwhelming expenses of life with a profound disability and offer opportunities for greater accessibility to live life to the fullest.
