My Journey of Hope!
Hi everyone! I'm Jude, a sophomore Bioengineering student at UIUC and a proud member of Pi Kappa Phi's Upsilon chapter.
This summer I'll be getting on my bike to participate in the Journey of Hope. I’ll be cycling coast-to-coast alongside my brothers across the nation to spread a message of empathy and acceptance for people with disabilities. The best part of this journey is that we'll be partnering with dozens of organizations along the way to provide direct support and build meaningful connections with them and the broader community of individuals with disabilities.
Please help me support this mission with the Ability Experience with a donation through this page. Thank you for your incredible support, and anything helps!
