Inspired 2 Uplift Vancouver
Inspired 2 Uplift (I2U) is a nonprofit organisation focused on disability inclusion and advocacy, led by youth and centred on creating real change. Across its chapters, I2U works to break down stigma and build supportive communities for people with disabilities. We are now bringing Inspired 2 Uplift to Vancouver. This chapter is being built from the ground up. We are building a founding team. People who want to help shape the vision, plan our first events, lead outreach, form partnerships, and turn I2U’s mission into real impact in the Vancouver community. Other I2U chapters have organised awareness campaigns, collaborated with schools and community organisations, and launched youth-led initiatives that strengthen the voices of people with disabilities. Our goal is to bring that same energy and impact to Vancouver.
