After a life-altering accident seven years ago that left him paralyzed, Dallas Disbro has turned his adversity into an opportunity to pursue his passion and positively impact others. In 2016, he suffered a debilitating neck injury while diving in Ocean City.

In 2018, he created Wheel 2 Win, a 3-on-3 wheelchair basketball tournament at Georgetown University. This event is a fundraiser for his local non-profit organization, The United Spinal Association of Washington, DC, dedicated to promoting awareness and inclusion.

Through his non-profit, Dallas actively supports and empowers the spinal cord injury community in the DMV area through mentoring programs, enriching trips, and essential grants to individuals in need.

Recognizing the inspiring work being done by Dallas and his non-profit, Easterns Automotive Group felt compelled to show their support. Joel Bassam, representing Easterns, joined 7 News to deliver a heartfelt message and a surprise donation of $2,200.
