Project Walk Spinal Cord Injury Recovery Center is located in Carlsbad, California and it has been improving the lives of people with SCI for 9 years through their intense exercise-based program. People that were told they would never walk again are now walking thanks to this great program. They have a wonderful crew of trainers, all well prepared, knowledgeable and with great encouraging attitudes. For more information on 'Project Walk' please visit: www.projectwalk.org

Each day I feel like I am closer to my recovery thanks to 'Project Walk' and their wonderful staff. Since I started on April 2008, even though I've been on and off, I have achieved some good progress so far. I've regained more strength in my upper body, my balance has gotten a lot better, I have more control over my spasms which have also gotten a lot stronger and keep getting stronger, I have more muscle tone, and I notice in all the exercises I do that they are not as hard to do as when I first started, and I just feel great in general after working out at 'Project Walk', I feel healthier and more confident. It's also very motivating to see other people and all the progress they have had. To see people with the same level of injury as me walking makes me think, "if they can do it, so can I!"
In order to continue with this great program I have found myself in need of organizing fundraisers so I can cover the cost of $3600.00 usd a month. This program is not covered by any insurance, therefore I need all the support I can get.
