Achieve Tahoe is a nonprofit that builds health, confidence, and independence through recreational sports for children and adults with disabilities. The organization serves over 600 people a year through one-on-one snow sports lessons, waterskiing, paddle sports, and more. Achieve Tahoe's instructors and specialized, adaptive equipment allow the organization to serve just about anyone with any disability. Participants and family members often say that their experience with Achieve Tahoe goes on to affect other areas of their life such as gaining confidence to try other activities, becoming more social, and breaking down perceived barriers showing them that they can do things they never thought they could before.

"Forrest has had the opportunity to participate in a variety of Achieve Tahoe programs in Lake Tahoe: archery, horseback riding, paddle boarding, kayaking, jet skiing, tubing and snow skiing! The instructors and volunteers at Achieve Tahoe demonstrate the utmost respect, patience and understanding with their clients. Forrest always feels supported and comfortable learning from and interacting with the staff at Achieve Tahoe and he returns home feeling so proud of his accomplishments! Thanks for all you do to support the disabled community in Lake Tahoe!" - Erica D.

It is in the word "achieve" , the name of the 50 year old program, that the seeds of independence are planted and nurtured. The goal is to help build confidence by accomplishing a physical task and have fun at the same time. The motto posted for all to see is “if I can do this, I can do anything”.
