Wheelchair Accessible lift for Mak
Donation protected
My name is Denille Jorgensen and I am really good friends with the Manzo family! Their daughter Makenna is a sweet 11 year old girl with spinal muscular atrophy. Due to the progression of her disease, she is now 100% wheelchair bound. This past January Makenna had major surgery on her hips, knees and ankles so she received a new wheelchair to accommodate her need but unfortunately her family does not have a lift on their van to transport her wheelchair.
Her family was able to purchase a new van with the space to accommodate a wheelchair and lift but have not been able to purchase the lift yet. We are wanting to raise money to cover the cost or a portion of the lift for Makenna so that she is able to leave the house with her wheelchair. $8,750.00 is the estimate they got for it to be installed on their type of vehicle. Currently she can only use the power chair at home due to not being able to transport it. Please help us raise money for this lift that will help benefit the lives of her and her family for years to come. Every little bit helps! Thank you!
