馃挋 Meet Lauren! 馃挋 This @givingtuesday, break down financial barriers and give the gift of independence for individuals like Lauren. After a spinal cord injury last August led to paraplegia, Lauren faced the immense challenge of learning to live independently with no local family. The need for specialized equipment was critical, but the cost put accessibility out of reach. Through Easterseals PORT Health鈥檚 Assistive Technology program, Lauren recently received a power assist device that transforms her manual wheelchair into a powered chair for a fraction of the cost. Now, Lauren can walk her dog Penny and not worry about the terrain and has more confidence to overcome previous barriers to accessibility. Early Giving is NOW OPEN! Donate today to help more individuals like Lauren build independence and engage fully in the activities that matter most. 馃憠 Give TODAY using the link in our bio! #GivingTuesday2026 #EastersealsPORTHealth #AssistiveTechnology #GiveNOWESPH #QCD #DAF #LeaveALegacy
