Here is an e-mail I received today. If you can help please do. I figured with a membership of 164,000 with 328,000 eyes and 328,000 ears. This would be the place to start.
Dear REALTOR®:
My name is Steven Dorney and I, at one time, was a member of your Board. I am retired from the Fall River Public Schools. A group of us have been involved in a project to help a friend and colleague that retired early due to illness. He has been confined to a wheelchair for a long time. Thus far, we have provided him with a battery operated scooter and recently built a deck on his raised ranch home.
Originally, our plans were to build a ramp from the just completed deck since he has no " easy " access to the outside for medical appointments and/or emergencies. This ramp is no longer feasible and now we are focusing on trying to locate a used residential lift/ vertical lift/wheelchair platform/porch lift.
I asked my friend, Michael McNally, if we could contact your Board of REALTORS® members in our efforts to locate this item. A new lift is not affordable for us so we're concentrating on finding a used one. We think that there are such devises attached to houses that may not be needed anymore. If you know of such a situation, could you please contact Mike McNally at 508-674-7985 or call me at 508-523-6870.
Any help you can give us will be greatly appreciated.
Think the power of the Rain can help. BTW reblog away.
Thank You,
Lisa
