Totally transparent.
Aspire is a little different because we’re a non-profit that runs like a business. We raise money to deliver disability services. Sell products to turn up disability acceptance. Empower people to practice inclusion for all.
We know where our funding comes from is incredibly important to you and to how we continue moving our mission forward. It takes a mix of gifts and social enterprise ventures to generate the revenue that keeps our operation firing on all cylinders.
