At the I Still Can Foundation, our mission is simple: to help individuals with spinal cord injuries or other mobility challenges return to the activities they love. Life doesn’t stop after an injury, and we believe the opportunities for adventure, excitement, and purpose shouldn’t either. Through our programs and support, we open doors for people to reclaim their passions and rediscover what’s possible.

We are dedicated to bringing adrenaline, joy, and freedom back into the lives of those facing mobility limitations. From boating, canoeing, and jet skiing to trail riding, side-by-sides, and even skydiving, we provide access to experiences that spark excitement and build confidence. Our goal is to prove that the thrill of life remains within reach — no matter the circumstances.

The I Still Can Foundation exists to show that a spinal cord injury or mobility challenge does not define a person’s future. By focusing on ability, not disability, we create opportunities for individuals to live fully, chase adventure, and embrace life without limits. Our mission is to inspire resilience, foster community, and help people continue doing the things that make them feel most alive.

Grady Chandler is the founder of the I Still Can Foundation, an organization dedicated to empowering individuals with spinal cord injuries to continue pursuing their passions and living fulfilling lives. After sustaining a spinal cord injury in a 2019 race car accident, Grady remained determined to overcome the challenges of his disability and return to his love for motorsports. His personal journey of resilience and perseverance inspired him to create the foundation, offering others in similar situations the support and opportunities they need to thrive and embrace life without limits.

Jeremy Johnson is a dedicated advocate and educator with over 20 years of experience as a college professor specializing in health and science. Although spinal cord injury was once outside his area of focus, encountering its impact transformed his career and purpose. Jeremy has since devoted himself to improving the physical well-being and overall quality of life for individuals with spinal cord injuries, while offering support in every way he can. He brings this passion and commitment to the I Still Can Foundation, helping further its mission to empower people to thrive and pursue meaningful lives beyond their injuries.

Amy and Bob Chandler have been a constant source of strength, love, and encouragement for their son, founder Grady Chandler, throughout his journey with a spinal cord injury.

Deeply committed to helping people with disabilities thrive, Amy and Bob actively advocate for inclusion and support within the community. Their big hearts and dedication make them invaluable to the I Still Can Foundation and its mission to empower people to live life without limits.
