This past weekend, 2 trailers used by Disabled Athlete Sports Association (DASA) were stolen. These trailers are used by DASA to transport special equipment needed by DASA athletes so that people of all abilities can participate in various sports. This fundraiser is to gain funds to replace the 2 trailers valued at approximately $2600 each, plus fees associated with painting or otherwise marking the trailers as belonging to DASA to make them less likely to be stolen in the future. (The third trailer that was marked as DASA was not stolen.) This organization has helped countless children and adults across the St. Louis area and beyond. Please help them to continue to help these athletes by donating to replace their trailers.
The Disabled Athlete Sports Association (DASA) is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization specializing in therapeutic sport and fitness opportunities. The athletes of DASA are encouraged to seek their highest level of independence and become involved to the fullest extent with their non-disabled peers and their community as a whole. Programs introduce both children and adults to sports and fitness activities that promote physical fitness, self-confidence, family values, and a positive, team-building environment designed to encourage personal growth throughout all aspects of life.
Additionally, DASA is losing its storage space for housing equipment. See the below message from DASA founder, Kelly Behlmann:
Dear FB friends, I/DASA urgently need your help. We have to be moved out of our storage building in Cave Springs by August 31st. We have been blessed to have this facility over the last 3 years free of charge from Lumbar Liquidators. They have now found a paying tenant. Please Please Please if you or anyone you know has a empty building at least 5,000 square foot up to 10,000 we really need a new home. We use this building to store all of our adaptive equipment and Camp equipment. We are good quite tenants, low maintenance. There are many many empty buildings in St Peters St Charles area, if you know any of the leasing companies please urge them to consider loaning one to us. St Charles County area would be best, but we'll take anything in Westport, Creve Couer, Chesterfield area too. We frequent the location at least 3 x a week to load and unload for our daily programs.
If you have warehouse space that DASA can use, please contact the DASA offices at
