Donate Your Used AT for Earth Day

Do you have any gently used AT sitting around in your closet or garage?

 

Donate it for Earth Day!

It is that time of year again... time for some good old-fashioned spring cleaning!  Why not use Earth Day as your impetus to get organized, clean out that garage, basement or closet, and reduce, reuse, and recycle while you are at it. Chances are you have something collecting dust that someone else could use to be independent.

In honor of Earth Day and to promote our reuse partners, the AT Network is excited to announce our first annual Earth Day Reuse Drive with participating organizations throughout California .
 
Did you know that there are many organizations throughout California that accept gently-used donations of medical equipment and other AT devices?  Thanks to a generous donation from Molina Healthcare, the AT Network is kicking off its first annual Earth Day Reuse Drive to promote these amazing organizations' efforts. Not only are they keeping AT equipment from laying useless in landfills, but they are also getting it into the hands of people that really need it!  People like Araceli in Bakersfield. 

Araceli, a mother of two, uses a wheelchair because she has Cerebral Palsy.  She calls her wheelchair her "legs with wings" because it allows her to live independently and do all of the many things a mother of two needs to do. When she was in a car accident and her power chair was destroyed, Araceli's life stopped. She was distraught because she couldn't afford a new one or a rental and was told she would have to wait months for her insurance to cover it. Thanks to the Independent Living Center of Kern County and the AT Network's Keep the Wheels Rolling Repair Fund, Araceli was able to use a refurbished power wheelchair in the meantime. Araceli was greatful to have her "legs with wings" - and life - back.

You can further this great cause by donating any gently used items that might be useful to individuals with disabilities. Please contact each program directly to find out what equipment they accept and please let others know about these programs.

  3. Bola merupakan http://www.arenagaming88.com/ sebuah hal yang sangat digemari di Indonesia, bahkan ada banyak sekali acara nonton https://www.918kissgaming.net/ bareng di Indonesia di berbagai kota. https://www.joker138.vip/ Tentu ini menunjukkan antusiasme Indonesia terhadap olahraga tersebut. Dalam beberapa acara nonton bareng itu biasanya ada sebuah perjudian di dalamnya, akan tetapi skalanya sangatlah kecil karena hanya antar https://www.sbobett168.com/
    penonton saja ataupun antar teman saja. Dalam sistem online skalanya lebih besar, karena bisa saja Anda bertaruh dengan orang yang sangat jauh dan dengan jumlah yang lebih banyak. Jenis permainan dalam perjudian bola ini pun sudah sangat banyak, https://www.sbobetwa.com/ mungkin diawal hanya ada penebakan tim yang akan menang saja akan tetapi sekarang sudah jauh berkembang karena mempertaruhkan skor, ada sistem voor, dan lain sebagainya.
