Recently, The Stacy Fuson Foundation funded eight women from Team USA to travel and compete in the Women’s Cup 2025 Wheelchair Rugby tournament in Paris. Jen Chaillie, an Ability360 athlete, was on the team. Another example of her generosity is the Foundation provided funding for Ability360’s recent ski trip to Flagstaff.
“My mother had a disability,” said Fuson. “Growing up I did many things to help her. I went to countless doctor appointments with her and saw first-hand the stress that a disability places on an individual and their families. I wanted to do something to help and that’s why I started the Foundation!”
In addition, a portion of the proceeds also will benefit The One Step Closer Foundation (1SCF), a non-profit organization that improves the lives of people who have from cerebral palsy and various disabilities.
