  1. In solidarity with my sister

    My sister was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She’s getting standard of care treatment (chemo ++). Based on numerous scientific publications,  it seems that a healthy diet, coming on top of the conventional treatment, might help improve the outcome of the disease. Therefore, in solidarity with my sister, I am now following a healthy diet just like her: she is quitting most added sugars, carbs, highly-processed food, and I follow an “anti-inflammatory” diet. Besides helping my sister, my personal goal is to try and curb down my ever increasing neuropathic pain and arthritis. Will you encourage both of us? You can…

  2. samen tegen dwarslaesie voor en door jongeren

    Together, prevention of spinal cord injury

    A spinal cord injury is damage to the nerves in the spinal column and can happen to ANYONE. It leads to (partial or complete) paralysis of the body. Worldwide, approximately 27 million people currently live with paralysis, including many young people who must spend their entire lives in a wheelchair. With the campaign “Together against paralysis for and by young people”, Scholengemeenschap Were Di in Valkenswaard wants to inform as many young people as possible about the very serious consequences of paralysis. More importantly, thanks to an animation, we tell them how they can prevent this condition, simply by not…

    Donations to SCI research as birthday present

    My name is Lea, I am 19 years old and I became a quadriplegic (all four limbs are paralyzed) after a car accident. My life is now forever changed and I am dependent on the help of others for any basic activity, such as getting out of bed, doing my hair, going to the bathroom, etc. What about my future? It is right in front of me and I can still influence it. For my next birthday, I do not wish to receive a “STUFF”. I am tired of STUFF! I prefer HOPE… HOPE for me and for the millions…

    Marion’s challenge: walk the Handelse Processie for my father

    Fundraising for spinal cord injury research: Marion’s “Unfreeze” challenge: walk the “Handelse Processie” and raise funds for cure research. … My father and I were 2 hands in one. The weird thing is that I was always afraid of losing him. We did so much together. One of the things we did was our annual trek from Valkenswaard to Handel (the Handel procession). As crazy as it was, I told him I was afraid that one day I would have to make the trip alone without him. My dear father died of a spinal cord injury in November after a…

  6. Unfreeze challenge: yoga for paraplegic

    Corinne’s Unfreeze challenge: yoga for paraplegic

    Welcome to Corinne’s “Unfreeze Your Body/ Mind challenge”: yoga for paraplegic. Breathe, get grounded, “rise above”… This is the promise of yoga … also for people living with a spinal cord injury. Therefore, I am challenging myself to learn full-body paraplegic yoga and to practice it on a regular basis. Yoga courses for physically challenged people are rare and I am learning on my own, with the help of internet. My end goal is to post various pictures of yoga asanas (poses), and ultimately to make and share a video that will help others to get started.

    Serena’s fundraising challenge: travelling alone

    This is my “Unfreeze Your Mind” challenge: I will be travelling alone for 3 months around South East Asia. My goal is to unfreeze my mind, discover new cultures, be an ethical traveler, become more self-confident. I, as well, wish to challenge other women to travel alone because a woman should feel as free to travel as a man. Through this campaign, I am also raising funds for research into curing spinal cord injury. Will you support me through a donation to the endParalysis foundation?

  11. Eric’s Unfreeze challenge: je veux m’alléger !

    Les années passent et on se sent de plus en plus lourd, de tous points de vue. Il est temps pour moi de me bouger et de m’alléger d’une dizaine de kg. J’ai voulu me lancer ce défi souvent, très souvent… Mais je n’ai jamais réussi à continuer. Alors, pour m’aider à tenir, je prends le défi Unfreeze avec la fondation endParalysis et invite mes amis à me soutenir par leurs dons! Une idée : qui versera quelques euros pour chaque kilo que je perds ( cliquez sur bouton Donate pour donner à la fondation) ? Cela serait un fantastique…

  12. Mayra’s Unfreeze challenge: Meditate and bike!

    For a long time already, I have been willing to create a routine to meditate. I have experienced all the benefits of meditation like quieting my mind (from the outside noise), observing and understanding my deeper feelings and finding inner peace. I know meditation can help me enjoy my present life more. So, I’ll work hard to create this routine in three months. Because body and mind are much interlinked, I also plan to bike and to invite friends to bike with me! Please support me through donations to the endParalysis foundation (Donate button below). 100% of your donations go…

    Therapeutic walking with spinal cord injury AND raise funds to cure paralysis, that’s my challenge. Welcome to my “Unfreeze Your Body” Challenge! This picture is real, it is me, “walking” on the Van Gogh cycling path… Before the beginning of my Unfreeze challenge, I felt more “paralyzed” than I should…That’s exactly why I wanted to stretch my limits! I just didn’t want to be glued to my chair anymore. I knew that I needed to move, use my whole body, including my legs, even if it’s only on a therapeutic basis. My target: do therapeutic walking again and move my…
