All Wheels Up Mission

All Wheels Up advocates on behalf of the 4 million wheelchair users in the United States and estimated 65 million wheelchairs spanning the entire globe.  Our mission is to increase awareness for safer and more dignified accessible air travel through research and advocacy. 

AWU is currently the only non-profit in the world funding the research needed to secure a wheelchair spot on airplanes.  You fundraising and donation efforts will help:

• Fund additional testing of wheelchairs and tie-down securement systems for commercial flight, meet with regulators such as the FAA, DOT, and Congress to allow wheelchairs on airplanes
• Relaunch our Fly Safe Today program to help provide important assistive equipment to travelers with disabilities.
• Advocate for training contracted airline baggage workers to handle wheelchairs and mobility aids with white-glove treatment and much more!

Fundraising

All Wheels Up is a grassroots nonprofit organization run 100% by volunteers. We need your donation to help fund our mission: to increase awareness for safer and more dignified accessible air travel through research and advocacy.

Your donation helps us crash-test wheelchairs for commercial flight, meet with governmental groups such as Congress, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the Department of Transportation (DOT) to encourage policy change while educating decision-makers about the importance of a wheelchair spot on airplanes. We also need to meet with airlines and airplane manufacturers to discuss engineering, design, and logistics.
