Answer: The World Ability Federation is not engaged in an independent mission. Our goal is to promote, uphold and provide support for the tens of thousands of organizations worldwide whose mission directly or indirectly helps people with disabilities or special needs.
We accomplish this goal in several ways:
Our research project and our annual awards gala focuses on finding those organizations that are working to help people with disabilities and learning and evaluating their missions and making the information available to others in the federation and to the people with disabilities themselves.
Our scholarship program is designed to find and attract those individuals who are best suited to advance the missions of the members and friends of the federation, educate them at the best schools in the world, and provide intern jobs while in school and careers upon graduation directly benefiting the members and friends of the federation.
