To honour Ken’s life and accomplishments, your generous donations will go towards the International Collaboration on Repair Discoveries (ICORD) Physical Activity Research Centre. This fund provides people with spinal cord injuries (SCI) access to the latest specialized, adaptive and accessible equipment. Your support is also critical in creating opportunities for UBC researchers who want to better understand the exercise needs of people with SCI and for UBC students seeking applied and practical experiences working with diverse community members.
