Thank you for visiting this fundraiser for my nephew! Please take a moment to read the message below from the family:
Thank you for visiting our GoFundMe page! We would like to introduce you to our son, James Joseph ("JJ") Barber.
JJ is a fun-loving, big-hearted child with a contagious laugh. He is also living with both Autism and Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). We have a wheelchair accessible van that needs urgent repair. It is JJ’s only source of transportation and it is vital that he get to his doctor and hospital appointments.
The van has a bent axle, and this vehicle is factory-modified to convert it to an accessible van. The axle and other components are custom and the work is expensive.
We have put all of our savings towards this and have sought additional funding through sources such as Easter Seals of Canada and others, but find ourselves still considerably short on the cost of the repairs.
With your help, we will have the van up and running again soon. JJ and the rest of our family are extremely grateful for any and all donations received as this will allow us to resume a normal life again.
