A wheelchair accessible van costs $63,000. Our goal is to raise around $30,000. I don't have the exact number yet as we are waiting on an exact amount from President's Choice Charity which I should have within the next two weeks. Once they have confirmed the amount of funding I can then apply to Variety the Children's Charity. I have also applied to Giving in Action but our request was denied as there is no more money in their account. We would also sell our van and have about $6000 to give ourselves as well.

When we found out we were expecting twins seven years ago I never
expected the rollercoaster life would take us on. Benjamin was born 3 ½
months early and was soon diagnosed with cerebral palsy, chronic lung
disease, & a seizure disorder. Benjamin brings much joy to us.
Benjamin is a sweet boy with many challenges and throughout these
challenges he is always happy and has a
smile and a “hi” for everyone. Along with the joy comes the daily
challenges though. Right now my challenge is lifting Benjamin in and
out of the van and then also lifting his wheelchair in and out of the
van. Having a bad back already this has exasperated my bad back and is
starting to cause pain when I lift him. This is a constant struggle for
me, and I am afraid of what will happen as he continues to grow, because
as he grows, so does his medical equipment. A wheelchair van would be
life-changing for us! Having money to buy a wheelchair accessible van
would be a true blessing!
