Hi, I’m Wesley Ham, and I'm reaching out to you to support Helping Hands for the Disabled of NYC.

I survived an incomplete spinal cord injury resulting from a bicycle crash that initially left me paralyzed from the chest down. Thanks to surgery, therapy, a loving family, health insurance, community support, employment and hard work—I learned to walk again, ride a bike and to recover much of my life.

On August 18th 2025, I’ll be riding 100 miles in Prospect Park in Brooklyn to mark the three year anniversary of my injury, celebrate my recovery and to raise money and awareness for disabled New Yorkers.

Many disabled New Yorkers don’t have access to the same resources I had. And many survivors of traumatic injuries or illnesses have difficulty with everyday life activities; such as running errands, reading their mail, going shopping, or just taking a walk at will. That’s why I’m raising funds for Helping Hands for the Disabled of NYC, a grassroots nonprofit that empowers people with significant disabilities by:

Providing accessible resources and programs for disabled members.
Facilitating social and recreational activities that foster community engagement.
Ensuring ongoing support services that enhance the quality of life for our members.

Together, we can help make a lasting impact on the lives of those who need it most. Please consider donating to this meaningful cause. Thank you for your generosity!
