The Games are the largest annual wheelchair-sporting event in the world.
Mr. Brundage also stated, "Reuse is a form of recycling, and we were able to provide the Wheelchair Games with some much needed technology for this initiative. Through one small contribution, in a way, we were able to give something of great need to those that have paid a heavy price for the freedoms we cherish. It was certainly a privilege to coordinate and participate with this deserving initiative. On behalf of our team, we're looking forward to continuing to support the Wheelchair Games in Aspen next winter and Philadelphia, next summer."
