About Possibilities Unlimited International (PUI)
Established in 2003, Possibilities Unlimited International is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Its members raise money and accept donations on behalf of "special needs" martial arts students.
PUI serves to educate the public on developmentally including orthopedic challenged athletes with the emphasis on their "abilities" rather than their constraints of blindness, deafness, developmental challenges, post-polio, strokes and/or amputations. Students may be brain-damaged due to their mother's pre-natal drug use, while a few unfortunate others suffered emotionally and physically at the hands of family members.
