Support Lucky's Journey: Accessible Vehicle

Donation protected
A member of our B2C team is in need of a little help. Many of you may know John Ball and his families struggles with their son Lucky. The struggle is real just getting Lucky to a doctor's appointment. They are in desperate need of a handicap accessible vehicle. We have recently acquired a van but it's in need of engine work and customization to make it wheelchair accessible. If you would like to donate a little to help us achieve our goal, it would be appreciated. Here's a little bit about Lucky:

On August 19, 2015, Lucky was born prematurely at just 24 weeks, weighing 1 pound, 11 ounces, and facing immediate challenges such as Grade 4 bilateral brain bleeds. Rushed to the NICU with less than a 1% chance of survival, he underwent emergency surgeries for collapsed lungs and a heart defect, enduring a tumultuous 98-day stay filled with life-threatening infections. Lucky finally came home on November 25, 2015, a bittersweet day marked by the passing of his grandfather. Now almost 10 years old, Lucky lives with significant medical complexities & rarities, including blindness, Hydrocephalus requiring a VP shunt, and Grade 4 level 5 Spastic Quadriplegia Cerebral Palsy, rendering him nonverbal, nonmobile, wheelchair dependent, and g-tube fed. Additionally, he faces a rare seizure disorder, including Infantile Spasms and other uncontrolled seizures. Daily life involves transporting him in a car seat and wagon, a challenge given his size of over 80 pounds and almost 4.5 feet tall. Lucky desperately needs a wheelchair-accessible vehicle to safely travel to appointments.

Despite the struggles, Lucky's journey embodies resilience, teaching the importance of cherishing every moment and embracing hope and determination.

Thank you for your consideration!
