“Completing this summer research project, a requirement of my degree, alongside my peers is only possible by leveling the playing field between myself and my able bodied cohort. Travel has always been a particularly difficult and barrier filled activity for me. I want to thank you sincerely for making this experience easier for me." -Charlie
"As a paraplegic, this equipment significant improves my daily activities and health, helps with my mobility, and reduces some health risks associated with prolonged sitting.” -Mauricio
"Finding balance between my academic responsibilities, work assignments, and rest is made easier with your aid.” -SJ
"This was an immensely powerful experience for me, both personally and professionally. There are very few times when I am not the only blind person in the room, and I don’t feel the need to explain myself or my identity. This convention was a great opportunity for self-reflection, networking, skill building, and professional growth, and I hope to attend several more throughout the years. I sincerely thank you for financially supporting this amazing experience." -Anna
