Ibrahim has a desire to see disabled persons in Kenya increase their independence and visibility. Through his experiences as a physically challenged person, he has learned the importance of physical sports as a method of building fitness, character and confidence. Ibrahim knows the power that sports can have to disprove negative viewpoints of the physically challenged. For over ten years, Ibrahim has traveled throughout Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda speaking to groups in an effort to change public perceptions of the physically challenged.

In 2003, he began training physically challenged people in various activities including soccer, cycling, table tennis, running and fitness exercises. Ibrahim has done this without any outside funding but has made it his goal to raise money to open a training center in Kenya that will meet various needs of the physically challenged. The center will focus on the following goals.

  1. Increase confidence in the physically challenged through sports and fitness.
  2. Provide education assistance and life skills trainining.
  3. Promote needs awareness and equality for the physically challenged.
