We need your help.
Our family has been without a wheelchair accessible vehicle for nine months. It is now time that we purchase a new vehicle and we need your help with the staggering cost of converting a van to be wheelchair accessible.
We are not asking for assistance with the cost of the van, we simply ask for support in covering the cost of the conversion. The conversion cost of a new van for Liam will cost $33,000. Again, this is just for the conversion. Due to the pandemic we have had trouble locating and receiving grant funding as most resources are now focused on other issues. Our need still remains and the nature of chronic illness is that our issues will never going away.
We have saved $19,000 toward the cost of the conversion. We have also requested funding from the county but we are not guaranteed financial assistance. Please consider donating.
It takes a huge emotional toll to keep asking for help, but we know we are not alone in our struggles. We are so grateful for all the help we have been given over the years and we are always looking for our own ways of paying it forward.
With love,
Betsy, Mark, Liam, Lydia and Gordie Walker
