Rick Hansen Foundation

Exit: octobre 2020

For over three decades, the Rick Hansen Foundation (RHF) has facilitated collaboration, forged partnerships and generated social innovations to create a world where everyone can go everywhere. With a mission to create and deliver solutions that inspire a global movement to remove barriers and liberate the potential of people with disabilities, RHF has created and continues to evolve a suite of programs, including a school program, accessibility certification program and awareness campaigns.

The Foundation also funds innovative spinal cord injury research to find cures for paralysis that improve health outcomes and the quality of life for persons with a spinal cord injury.

Opportunity

Support the Foundation in growing its impact nationally and globally, specifically through widespread adoption of the RHF Accessibility Certification program and broadening and sustaining its network of champions.

Plan

Refine RHF’s Impact Measurement framework to streamline social impact reporting and improve performance. Develop a multi-faceted strategy to diversify revenue sources and secure unrestricted and consistent funding. Develop a robust social enterprise roadmap that leverages RHF Accessibility Certification assets, while opening new avenues for RHF. Develop a comprehensive volunteer strategy and design an agile and sustainable organizational structure – all leading the organization to its next phase of growth.

The Foundation is thrilled to partner once again with LIFT Impact Partners. Our partnership in 2010 provided significant support in our journey to develop what is now known as our accessibility certification program, and we are excited to have their continued support to further develop our long-term strategy for growth and positive impact for persons with disabilities. »
