UW-Adapted Fitness

The Madison West Kiwanis Club kicked off a ground breaking multi-year scholarship program in 2008 with Adaptive Sports Association of Durango, Colorado. In May 2006, well-known scientist, University of Wisconsin alumna and former faculty member Ethel Allen passed away at 98. The provisions of her estate called for a distribution of funds to the Madison West Kiwanis Club to be used exclusively for scholarships for Madison area residents with disabilities to participate in ASA programming.  Each February or March brings a group of adaptive skiers from Madison, WI. Current plans are for at least one week of Madison scholarship recipients each winter.
