Partner with Us – Help People Find Freedom on Snow

Disabled Wintersport Australia (DWA) has been creating life-changing alpine experiences for people with disability for over 45 years. Each winter, we support participants across Australia’s major alpine resorts with adaptive equipment, trained volunteer guides, and inclusive programs that make snow sports accessible to all.

We are now building a structured National and Local Sponsorship Program to create sustainable revenue that supports equipment upgrades, volunteer training, youth pathways, and expanded resort programs.

Why Sponsor DWA?

  • Meaningful impact – Your support directly funds adaptive equipment such as sit skis and outriggers, enabling participants to ski, snowboard and build confidence.

  • National and local reach – Activation opportunities across multiple alpine resorts, with both national and community-based visibility.

  • Strong brand alignment – Inclusion, resilience, courage and community are at the heart of what we do.

  • Authentic storytelling – Real stories of achievement and independence that resonate with customers and communities.
