Paddle for a Purpose
THE POWER OF PURPOSE
Paddle For A Purpose is a special initiative in partnership with The Motz Group and Motz Moves. Joe Motz (Founder) will paddle a canoe he built himself 3,000 miles, sharing his journey, his passion for The Bridge Adaptive Sports & Recreation, and inviting others to propel the ripple effect of this splash-worthy cause. All funds that are contributed will directly benefit The Bridge. Donations will support the organization’s program quality, sustainability, and infrastructure.
We believe everyone should have access to opportunities that are physically challenging and bring joy. That's why Joe and Motz Moves wanted to team up with The Bridge. The Bridge team works every day to fulfill the mission of making it possible for people with disabilities to enjoy sports and recreation, and to move from surviving to thriving.

about the bridge
At The Bridge Adaptive Sports & Recreation, their mission is to increase awareness and promote opportunities for individuals to participate in adaptive sports and recreation in order to improve their quality of life. They aim to be a bridge from the hospital to the community, being sedentary to active, unequipped to fully fitted, and so on for individuals with disabilities. They break down barriers to accessing sport and recreation.
Where do we need support?
Here are just a few examples:
- Funding to purchase adaptive mountain bikes to officially bring adaptive mountain biking to Cincinnati.
- Funding to support the purchase of handcycles to support training and competing in the Flying Pig.
- Facility space to be able to store, test, and service adaptive sports equipment.
- Funding for purchasing sports wheelchair parts such as wheelchair wheels, axles, and cushions to increase our loanable inventory.
