ShareAbility: Sharing Tools. Building Inclusion.

At United Ability, we believe everyone should have access to the tools that make daily life easier, safer, and more independent. ShareAbility connects people who have assistive devices they no longer need with individuals and families who can use them right now — at no cost.

Before donating or picking up needed items:

  • Appointments are required. Please wait for a representative from ShareAbility to contact you to schedule this appointment.
  • Items must be clean and in working order.
  • Please include all parts and hardware.
