Project Success
Invest In Access was awarded a community grant in Fall 2020. At the time, many people in America were experiencing substantial economic and social challenges as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
Our team utilized a portion of the award to create GIFs which would allow us to increase our brand awareness as well as provide pertinent reminders of health and inclusion during a time when many people felt unrest in our society.
In Q1 of our launch, Invest In Access GIFs were viewed over 3,000,000 times across social channels such as Instagram and Twitter. Beyond the metrics, this project success captures the spirit of our team very well.
We are innovators who are keenly able to identify opportunities and grow them exponentially for the collective good.
Your donation is impactful.
Disability and accessibility are often forgotten in the grander scheme of the United States equity narrative. By funding Invest In Access, you level the playing field and make an immediate impact. We’ll use our internal allies and resources to become a steward for what we believe is crucially-important, worthwhile, and prosperous: access equity for people with disabilities.
When you donate to Invest In Access, your contribution makes a real time impact toward executing equity, inclusion and opportunity for the lives of people across our country. Donations play an essential role in fulfilling our mission of bringing accessibility to the frontlines of our communities.
Our Partners In Access
Invest In Access was founded as a remote-first organization, on Anishinaabeg land, in 2018. Remote-first is a highly accessible workplace model for members of the disability community, and the global COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 has proven that remote-first benefits may have additional environmental and economic benefits too.
