Help Bring WINGS to Life — A Story Inspired by My Paralympic Journey

Hi, I’m Isaac Jean-Paul — a two-time Paralympic medalist, world record holder in the high jump, and now… a storyteller with a big dream.

I’m launching this GoFundMe to bring my animated film WINGS to life — a powerful and imaginative story inspired by my own journey as a visually impaired athlete and my mission to become the first Paralympian to win Olympic gold at the Los Angeles 2028 Games.

What is WINGS?

WINGS follows Chester McFly, a young eagle with a visual impairment who dreams of flying in Skyhaven’s elite Flyer Showcase. With courage, creativity, and his crew — the M.O.D Squad — Chester learns that real vision comes from within.

This story is a reflection of my life — pushing past what others thought was impossible and chasing a dream that soars higher than doubt.

Why This Film Matters

Representation matters. Too often, stories about athletes with disabilities are told after the finish line — not during the climb.

WINGS is more than a movie. It’s a movement to:

Empower kids with disabilities

Celebrate imagination, resilience, and teamwork

Change the narrative in animation and media

Where Your Donations Go

Your support will help:

Fund a short animated pilot to pitch to major studios

Hire a diverse team of animators, sound artists, and voice talent

Begin festival submissions and marketing

Build toward a feature-length production by LA 2028

My Why

I’ve medaled in the Paralympics. I’ve broken records. But my biggest dream is still ahead.

LA 2028 isn’t just a competition — it’s a moment to shift culture.

Let’s build this together.

Help me show the world that limitations are just the beginning of greatness. Let’s give WINGS to a new generation.

With gratitude,

Isaac Jean-Paul
