This Giving Tuesday, KT is honored to team up with The Kyle Pease Foundation to help advance their mission of improving the lives of people with disabilities through sports and beyond. We are proud to support their vision to create opportunities of inclusion for every person with a disability.

Who is The Kyle Pease Foundation?

The Kyle Pease Foundation (KPF) was founded in 2011 by brothers Brent and Kyle Pease following their first triathlon together, a transformative experience that inspired them to bring the joy of inclusion in sports to others. Kyle wanted to share the empowering sense of community and achievement with individuals with disabilities, sparking the idea for KPF. After a few months of preparation, the foundation received its 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, launching its mission to create opportunities of inclusion in sports. By March 2012, KPF supported its first athlete, marking the start of an ongoing journey.  

Since then, KPF has grown significantly, providing grants, adaptive equipment, travel assistance, and support for athletes and their families, empowering participants to join in road races, triathlons, and other events across the nation. Today, KPF’s vision of a more inclusive world continues to inspire, building a community where all athletes can experience the connection and joy that sports offer.
