Purpose of This Fundraiser
Recently, Kimberly's specially-equipped car with driver controls was rear-ended by a hit-and-run driver, resulting in the total loss of her 15-year-old car. This has made it challenging for her to attend physical therapy sessions and has halted her speaking engagements, which our charity offers to student audiences. The purpose of this fundraiser is to get Kimberly back on the road again.
Our charity is sponsoring two fundraising campaigns. One campaign is to raise funds for driver controls and a special driver's seat from which Kimberly can transfer from the wheelchair to the driver's seat. The other is this one from which we hope to raise funds for the vehicle.
FEBRUARY UPDATE: We have decided the best vehicle for KImberly is a side-entry van with a swivel seat so she can move to the drivers seat from her wheelchair. We believe we can find a pre-owned handicap-enabled van for about $20,000, so we have upgraded our campaign goal.
Planned Budget for Funds
Bluebird Awards is also investigating grant sources as we try to gather the necessary funding. Of course all that is labor intensive work and take time. We are hoping to complete this campaign before the spring season.
Current Cash Available is $2,500 leaving a shortfall of $17,500 which is our fundraising goal here for the van. Insurance is an on-going expense and not included in our estimate here.
