Organization Info:

Kids Mobility Network was founded by Peter and Christy Kopp. As the parents of Kayla, a child with disabilities, the Kopp family realizes first- hand the benefit of durable medical equipment ("DME") to children and their families.

After Kayla out grew her first wheelchair, the Kopp family tried to find an organization that would find a new home for Kayla's wheelchair with a child that could benefit from using this excellent wheelchair. It was soon discovered that such an organization did not exist in Colorado, so the Kopps developed Kids Mobility Network.

The mission is to provide children with durable medical equipment to provide better access to their communities. Kids Mobility Network is enabling greater safety, mobility and independence for children with disabilities.
