More information
The ChairScholars Foundation, Inc. is a Florida-based charity with 501c (3) status and is one of just a few organizations to recognize the educational needs of this forgotten minority, specifically their need for viable workforce skills. Dr. Keim and his wife Alicia, having both overcome physical challenges of their own, wanted to help. They strongly believed that “no physical impairment should deter a motivated mind.” So, in 1992, they began by sending two students who were in wheelchairs to college. From this act of kindness, the ChairScholars Foundation emerged. To date, 641 scholarships have been awarded.
