Pumpkin Fest Note: I have cake dishes, cupcake trays, bowls and platters left over from Pumpkin Fest. Let me know if you know who they belong to so I can get them returned.

HOME RENOVATIONS:
We are getting closer to having a ramp installed, a lift put in and the bathroom modified in our new home so that David can use it. Should hear shortly on the building permit.

Help David Push Forward In a New Wheelchair

One of the next steps for David is transitioning to a manual wheelchair. A manual wheelchair offers several important advantages for David.

The new chair will be constructed of lightweight materials that fold up for easy transport. It will also allow David to be lifted over obstacles while in the chair. David’s current power wheelchair is incredibly heavy! A manual wheelchair can also fit into tight spaces such as doorways and hallways that might not otherwise accommodate David’s current chair. Very importantly, a manual wheelchair will allow David to get exercise, since he will be using his own power to get around.

Because David does not yet have sufficient arm strength to propel a manual wheelchair on steep inclines and long range hauls, the new chair will need to be customized with power-assist wheels. These are lightweight, electric wheels that will be powerful enough to give David help when he needs it, but will not make the chair too heavy.

The new wheelchair will also need to be customized for David in other ways, and will cost $11,646.00.

The new wheelchair will help David get stronger and become more independent. Donate today and help David move forward!

Thank you!

A GIANT THANK YOU goes out to everyone that helped with David’s Booth at Pumpkin Fest this year. With the Help of many people we raised over $2,200 for David’s cause.

Special thanks goes out to the Keene High Student Council and their adviser Jessica Smith. The student council manned the booth from 10 a.m. in the morning until closing. They also baked tons of cookies, cakes, brownies, cup cakes, and many other great tasting treats. You guy’s where, “AWESOME”! Thank you!

Also thanks to Candy, Eric, Sam, Jack, Spencer, Janet and many others who helped with food, organizing the event, and helping with setup and take down.
