Making the World More Accessible with Kevan Chandler

My Big Story with Christopher Swan

Imagine if parts of the world you wanted to see and experience were off limits to you. Some people don’t have to imagine it. It’s their reality.

But things are changing.

Kevan Chandler founded the nonprofit, We Carry Kevan, where he’s become a prominent voice for rethinking accessibility in the world. Meaning, he’s creating new ideas and resources to make the world more physically accessible for people with disabilities.

And all of it started after an unusual backpacking trip to Europe, when Kevan’s friends carried him in a special, modified backpack.

But one trip wasn’t enough. Kevan and his friends are off to China this year to spread their ideas of accessibility, and to tour the sights, with his backpack of course.

I knew I needed to meet Kevan and hear about his trip and ideas, firsthand.

So I made my way over to Fort Wayne, IN and met Kevan at Fortezza Coffee, one of his favorite spots. From there and on to JK O'Donnell’s, we spent hours getting into his story and life, and getting to know each other.

Kevan is imagining the world differently, and he’s asking for everyone’s help.
