A Scooter for an Olympian
Donation protected
There are very few words to describe the grit and determination that Rob Hughes displays on a regular basis. Suffering from Cyrebal Palsy, Rob has not let his disabilities slow him down. Rob is an 18 time Canadian Champion, 7 time Pan-Am Champion and 4 time World Champion in the sport of (para) track & field. He represented Canada in the 2000 Para-Olympics in Sydney, Australia.
Rob is also a two diploma graduate from college (Sheridan, Lambton) and now is just starting his career at Lambton Elderly Outreach.
Being bound to a wheelchair, Rob's mobility and independance is dependant on his motorized scooter, which Rob needs to transport himself to the grocery store, doctor, etc. Places that we take for granted to get to. Rob's scooter is worn out and he currently can not get around on his own without one. Therefore, this GoFundMe page is to raise funds so that Rob can get a new scooter, to give his mobility back to him.
I appreciate your support in helping Rob. He represented our Country with grace and success. Time for us to represent him.
