Friend,
Traveling has the potential to be a nightmare for anyone, but for people with disabilities, real travel nightmares happen daily.
Lack of accommodations, no accessible bathrooms, and improper handling of mobility devices – which leads to 31 wheelchairs damaged daily – often ruin trips for people with disabilities long before they reach their destinations. And with air travel exempted from the protections afforded by the Americans with Disabilities Act, many Americans cannot rely on commercial air travel at all.
But right now, we have a special opportunity to help change that. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all gifts made by March 31 will be MATCHED up to $10,000. Give $25 or more now ahead of our end-of-quarter deadline and it will be DOUBLED to help people with disabilities stay connected to family, friends, and opportunities – no matter how they choose to travel there.
Easterseals is working hard to support person-centered, coordinated, and inclusive transportation services and networks – whether on the ground or in the skies – so everyone can travel safely and reach their destinations. We’re also leading the way in helping communities and organizations implement ADA transportation requirements and elevate accessible transportation options.
It’s your generosity that makes all these efforts possible and helps us provide 1.5 million people with the assistance they need to lead their best lives.
And while our exclusive match is live, every single dollar of your support will go TWICE AS FAR. So please don’t miss this opportunity to make even more of a life-changing impact: Give $25 or more right now and have it DOUBLED before our exclusive match expires on March 31. Help improve accessible transportation and support all our vital work for people with disabilities, older adults, and veterans.
Thank you for helping all of us get to where we want to be: a more equitable, inclusive, and accessible world.
– Team Easterseals
