Wheelchair wanted - Need filled!!!

NOTE: Many thanks to the readers who responded. I was able to pick up a wheelchair today at Faith in Action and deliver it in Woodstock. The person is able to use it as long as needed and will then return it to Faith in Action, so that it can be used by someone else.

And a special thanks to Faith in Action!!!

Do you have an unused wheelchair that you would be willing to loan, give or sell?

Yesterday I got acquainted with a Woodstock woman at the courthouse who could certainly benefit from your generosity.

Sometimes, medical equipment outlives its usefulness or need, and then it sits in a basement, back room or garage.

If you have a chair and will make it available, please let me know (please call 815.338.2666) and I'll connect you with the woman who has the need for it.

Thanks for reading and for passing this along to anyone who might be able to help.

Hi Gus
I have donated a lot of wheel chairs to Valley High Nursing home and other nursing homes in the area. You may want to check with the local facilities to see if they have any that they could donate from a deceased person.
Hope this woman can get help. :)
