Help me get a handicap van

Donation protected
Hi my name is Jackson, as a lot of you know I was paralyzed T5-T9 in 2007 from being hit while riding my motorcycle, then in 2018 I went into septic shock and then disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) which lead to me having a less than 20% chance of survival and I had to have both hands amputated at the wrists and both legs amputated above the knees. Now that I’m in an electric wheelchair it’s difficult for me to just throw my chair in the car and go. I now have to have help from my electric wheelchair to the vehicles seat, then my wheelchair is mounted on the hitch of the vehicle exposed to the elements so I have to choose my time right when I want to leave my house, and hope it doesn’t randomly rain. Having an handicapped accessible van would make my life, my mothers life and my friends lives easier so I could just roll into the van strap the wheelchair down and be on my way instead of a 15 minute ordeal. Most handicapped accessible vans are upwards of $40,000 dollars but I found a dealership that sells affordable handicapped accessible vans, in the range of $14k-$18k. I have the caps program im in willing to give me up to $13k for a handicap van. The problem is every time one in my range becomes available it sells before I can get the paperwork finished through CAPS and get approval. The dealership said if I could put a down payment on a van then it could legally be held until CAPS approval. So im trying to raise money for a good down payment to put on a van. I don’t expect anything but I appreciate everything I do get. Thank you if you share or donate!
