Description

ConnectAbility is asking for your support for our Crisis Fund.  Our Crisis Fund is accessed by our Care Coordinators to assist individuals financially when there is no other payment source.  We pay for wheelchair ramps and installation, accessible home modifications (door widening, restroom accessibility, etc.), prescription medication, physician copays, transportation costs for rides to physician appointments, prosthetic assistance for amputees, durable medical equipment and supplies, Housing/Utility assistance, Food, and more! 

If you are unable to accommodate a monetary request for our Crisis Fund, please consider donating either catering or goods/services/Gift Cards that we could use as special gifts to our clients with disabilities during times of Crisis and/or as Raffle/Door Prizes at one of our Client Appreciation Events. 

Our next event is our annual Summer Social on August 10, 2024.  We typically have an attendance of over 200 people who have been directly affected by a life-altering disability due to sudden, traumatic injury, and the donations we receive from companies like yours are wonderful gifts to present to our clients with disabilities – especially during this difficult economy. 

We are writing to ask for a donation to assist us in fulfilling this essential mission for people with life-altering disabilities and their families.  These types of injuries or disabling conditions can happen to anyone, anytime, changing lives forever.  We believe at ConnectAbility that finding help shouldn’t be the biggest obstacle someone should have to face.
