Support Ms. Wheelchiar Alabama 2017

Donation protected

        April 1st 2017 in Oxford , Alabama I was crowned Ms. Wheelchair Alabama - America 2017 . In the photo above I signed my contract to serve and advocate for disability for the year of my reign with my state coordinators Michelle Miller. (Ms. Wheelchair Alabama 2012 ) and Joanne Pearson. ( Ms. Wheelchair Alabama 2010) During the two weeks post crowning I've had I have attended my first Decatur/Huntsville GOOD VR Consumer Advisory Meeting  at the Decatur VR office with  Joanne Pearson and it was very productive! At the meeting I met Willard Brooks who invited me out to the Eggstravaganza for Special Needs Children at the Dublin Park in Madison. Where I greeted awesome, bright children as they entered and did arts and crafts with.
    I am so excited to serve further and to spread my platform of Interdependence and Ability Equality.  I want to not only educate able bodied individuals on diverse types of Disabilities, people first language and equality but it is my passion to ensure that women and men with disabilities develop positive self image and learn to prioritize themselves as human beings over their disabilities which personally speaking isn't the easiest lesson to learn when society's view ihas a direct impression on one's self image.  



      Not only do I wish to do this on a State Level but on a National level. as well The National Pageant will take place in Erie, Pennsylvania August 14-20th 2017 at the Ambassador Complex and I have pageant fees for a total of $2,000.  Half of which is due June 1st while the other half by July 1st.  I will also have to fly to this event, I will need a dress and I will be there a week so I will need personal monies as well to get through the event properly.  Monies giving to this fundraiser will not go to the Ms. Wheelchair Alabama Foundation to make all of these things possible.  Any donation of any amount helps and is so greatly appreciated.
