Everybody Lifting is a non-profit based in Phoenix, Arizona. Founded in 2024, the organization’s mission is to provide an inclusive, supportive, and equitable space where everyone–including LGBTQIA+ individuals, people of diverse body sizes, and those with disabilities–can train, compete, connect, and thrive.
At Everybody Lifting, we are committed to breaking down barriers and redefining the world of strength sports. We empower underrepresented athletes—queer individuals, people of diverse body sizes, and those with disabilities—by providing the resources they need to train, compete, and thrive. Through donations, we remove the financial obstacles that stand in the way of their dreams, offering access to gym memberships, competition fees, equipment, coaching, and more.
Our mission is to create an inclusive, supportive, and equitable space where everyone can rise, redefine strength, and feel seen. Together, we’re rewriting the narrative, one rep at a time, and building a future where every athlete has the opportunity to lift, compete, and succeed—on their own terms.
