Dear friends,
I hope this letter finds you well and full of positive energy. I want to share with you an important part of my life and that of my partner, and I kindly ask for your support in facing the challenges we are currently going through.
Since birth, I have lived with Cerebral Palsy, a condition that has limited my mobility and quality of life in various ways. Despite the obstacles I have faced, I am fortunate to be able to communicate effectively and actively participate in society. However, my mobility has been compromised, and at 46 years old, my physical situation has become more challenging.
Currently, I rely on an electric wheelchair to get around, as my muscles do not allow me to walk without difficulty, and I tire easily. Until now, my partner has been a fundamental pillar in my life, helping me with many daily tasks and facilitating my mobility. However, two years ago, she suffered a stroke that left consequences on her mobility, further limiting our possibilities of leading a full and active life.
Our situation has led us to an urgent need: the acquisition of a larger and more adapted vehicle, such as a Volkswagen Multivan, that allows us to move around with greater comfort and accessibility. Not only is this vehicle expensive, but it will also require adaptations to accommodate my power wheelchair and allow me to transfer from it to the driver’s seat via an adapted platform.
It is for this reason that I turn to you for help. Any financial contribution you can provide will be invaluable to us.
This support will allow us to:
- Acquire the necessary vehicle to improve our mobility.
- Make the adaptations required to make the vehicle accessible.
- Recover part of our independence and quality of life.
In gratitude for your generosity, we offer the possibility of including signs on the new vehicle, with the intention of raising awareness of this project and also helping other people in similar situations. Additionally, I will be happy to show off my special wheelchair and provide information on how to lead a more accessible and dignified life to everyone who supports us.
Our need is urgent, and any contribution, large or small, will bring us one step closer to our goal. If you would like to be part of this mission to improve our mobility and quality of life, we would be infinitely grateful.
On behalf of my partner and I, we thank you for taking the time to read this letter and consider our application. Together, we can make a more accessible and dignified life possible.
With gratitude and hope,
Inigo
