Does anyone know of a service or charity that helps make homes wheelchair accessible?

I need help building a ramp and widening doorways and I can't afford a carpender to do it. I'm looking for help in the Orlando FL area.


Contact your local Kiwanis Club. I know for a FACT that they build wheelchair ramps. They might be able to connect you to a contractor (because that's what you need...not just a carpenter) willing to donate the work. www.kiwanis.org

Put on a wheelchair basketball game. Get the local TV and radio stations to do the advertising. Perhaps get local business to sponser the players. Get local restaurants to donate food.

Is there really a charity that encourages you to save green milk bottle tops to save for wheelchairs?

My son has been asked to collect the weight of a girls wheelchair in green bottle tops, a charity will then provide a super electric wheelchair for the disabled girl. I have since been told that this is a scam and has been around for some time. is this the case?

Anyone know of a good charity organization to help a child?

Young girl with cerebral palsy, in need of a new wheelchair and money to pay for physical therapy (family can only afford 1 hour per week). Does anyone know of any charity organization that can help? national or local (chicago area).


You can try MDA, which is a national organization that helps people with cerebral palsy. Also, you can do a event where the community is involved, and you can do benefit car washes, bake sales. Be creative and I am certain you can come up with something. Your heart is in a good place and therefore, God bless you.

    OK, you are doing a charity climb up Mount Snowdon which includes a wheelchair bound man. The climbers carry him half way up the  mountain before he becomes too heavy , so what do they do? a) abandon the climb and take him back down  or b) leave him sitting on a steep,cold, rocky path alone while they continue to the peak? OK, if you all picked b) give yourself a pat on the back.  Anywho, when the party of six eventually returned to the now shivering man,  they called a rescue party to carry him down because they were too exhausted. Enter 15 members of the mountain rescue team .
