Contest to win an adapted van --please vote for me!

Postby Sheenar » Thu Mar 14, 2013 7:57 am

Mods, if this type of thing is not allowed, please let me know as I want to be respectful of the rules.

Before my car accident this week, I entered a contest to win an adapted van --a van with a built-in lift--one that is scooter and wheelchair accessible. It would mean the WORLD to me to win a van! I can no longer use the behind-the-car lift on my car as I injured myself tightening the straps on it. Plus, now my car is out of commission and may not be repairable --so I'll be without transportation.

Winning an adapted van would mean that I could be more active in my community by being able to take my scooter with me. I could volunteer more and be more active in the community service organization that I am the President of. I would also be able to give rides to others here in my apartment complex (I live in a complex for people with neurological disabilities) as there is no reliable paratransit system where I live (We're not within Harris County, so no Metrolift).

You can vote once every 24 hours until the contest ends the first week of May. Please take a moment each day and vote for me! It would mean a LOT!!

Everyone needs to Image on this.
It takes literally zero Image

e: I went ahead and shared it on my Facebook and Twitter accounts also, hope you don't mind. I know people on both of those who would be inclined to give votes.

No problem, Sheenar! I really hope this works out for you.

Done. I also shared this on facebook; I know several people who would vote (and who would understand your situation).

Thank you all for voting! :)

I'm very, very far behind in votes (like over 1,500 votes behind the leaders) --but I really appreciate the show of support!

Even if I don't win in the contest, God is faithful and will meet my needs in some other way. :)
