Help Kimberly Ocampo’s Journey Inspiring Others

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.

Join us in supporting Kimberly, our dedicated goodwill ambassador who tirelessly represents our charity. Kimberly's vital work is currently on hold and made her travel to and from therapy sessions very difficult. Your support can make a significant difference in her life and enable her to continue her inspiring journey and impactful work.

Kimberly is a remarkable young lady whose courage in facing adversity is truly amazing. She strives to be independent in every way as an artist, singer, composer, dancer, motivational speaker and more. She is one of those rare individuals who give everything but asks nothing in return.The Medical Workers Scholarship Fund, DBA Bluebird Awards, an IRS approved 501c3, tax-deductible, Public Charity EIN 86-3946005.
