OUR MISSION
Helping students to celebrate life and their abilities, while overcoming adversities.
REY'S STORY
Rey Grandoit was only 14 years old when he became paralyzed from the waist down due to spinal meningitis. Despite contracting the bacterial infection and using a wheelchair for mobility, the Boston native didn’t let his circumstances dictate his outlook on life.
He admits suffering from moments of despair and bouts of depression — believing that his dreams of becoming a professional basketball player and CEO were lost forever.
But he didn’t give up; instead, he powered through and persevered. For over 25 years, Rey has spoken to audiences telling them his story of overcoming adversity and how he uses his abilities to achieve his dreams.
