Ease the Load: A Van for Darrell

Donation protected

Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude. Thanks to each and every one of you, Darrell and I finally have the van we so desperately needed. Your love and support mean more than words can express. From here on, every contribution will go toward keeping our van in good shape — maintaining the tires, oil changes, brakes, and everything that keeps us safely on the road.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you everyone for making this possible ❤️

The time has come where we need a van for Darrell. We have exhausted all resources to no avail, including grants and loans that are out of reach or we do not qualify for. The developmental disabilities association will pay to install a ramp and wheelchair hookups, I just need to own the van.
Our current SUV is becoming unreliable and will be more expensive to repair it than what it's worth. Loading him (all 80+ lbs and counting) in and out of his car seat is also taking a toll on my body. Since I am unable to work due to his needs and being his full-time caregiver, his SSI is our only source of income. Any help is greatly appreciated. We are hoping to find a reliable and affordable van that will make transportation easier for Darrell and lessen the strain on my body. Thank you for considering our situation and any assistance you can provide.
