For years, the nonprofit organization Magic Wheelchair aims to bring communities together to create unforgettable moments for children around the world by transforming their wheelchairs into magic.  They build epic costumes for kids in wheelchairs at no cost to families.  In 2018, they raised $25,000 on Kickstarter to bring seven Star Wars fans from around the US to the San Diego Comic-Con.  Adaptive costumes is a way to break the barrier between people with disabilities and those without disabilities.
