What makes a hero? Is it that he is Fast? Or that She is strong? Does a hero really need a costume? Or just a BIG Heart? Sometimes even HEROES need a bit of help and a little bit of MAGIC!


Christine Getman joins us to showcase the heroes her non-profit organization has provided a magical world too. She is the Executive Director of Magic Wheelchair, a nonprofit that promotes inclusion and self-expression of children with disabilities through adaptive cosplay. She studied Public Health and Psychology at Portland State University. Her lived experience within the disability community has shaped her career which includes nonprofit executive leadership, legislative advocacy, program development, and grant writing. She currently serves on the board of The Wheel To Walk Foundation and Multnomah County Animal Services.


Magic Wheelchair is a nonprofit organization that builds epic costumes for kiddos in wheelchairs — at no cost to families.


Their mission is to bring communities together to create unforgettable moments for children around the world by transforming their wheelchairs into magic.
