Push America is proud to introduce The Push America Challenge, a campaign that gives everyone the opportunity to display their human ability by competing in endurance events across the country and raising funds and awareness for people with disabilities. Push America is dedicated to increasing the funds raised for people with disabilities through the involvement of more athletes participating in Push America programs.

The Push America Challenge is designed to provide an opportunity for people to take an unselfish approach to endurance competition. Anyone that is or has ever been interested in participating in an endurance event, whether it is a marathon, triathlon or any other physically demanding activity, can now do so and raise funds and awareness on behalf of people with disabilities in the process.

The Push America Challenge is not limited to members of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity. Push America encourages any individual that is interested in spreading awareness for people with disabilities to sign up for an event and proceed in challenging themselves to truly understand human ability.

Participating in an event is easy. All you have to do is pick a race to participate in. We have participants who are competing in everything from a 5K to a full Ironman Triathlon. While you are training, you also commit to fundraising on behalf of Push America and people with disabilities. All proceeds for The Push America Challenge will go towards improving the programs of Push America in order to better serve people with disabilities.

Some might say that the true ability of a human being is only realized when faced with adversity and people with disabilities display a great deal of courage as they face adversity everyday. However, adversity is defined as a condition that is marked by great misfortune, and a disability is not a misfortunate condition; it is a lifestyle for millions and one that displays human ability to the fullest everyday.

Society as a whole suffers from the misinterpretation of what it means to have a disability and that living with a disability prevents one from living a normal life. Push America challenges you to challenge yourself to not only raise funds and awareness for people with disabilities, but to maximize your potential and push yourself to the limit both mentally and physically in order to gain a true understanding of human ability.
