May is National Mobility Awareness Month
National Mobility Awareness Month is the inaugural May celebration that encourages people with disabilities to enjoy active, mobile lifestyles. To spread the word, the National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association (NMEDA) will be looking for three Local Heroes to receive a free wheelchair van. It may be you or someone you know.
A Local Hero is you or anyone in your community—a caregiver, veteran or person with a disability—who is dealing with or overcoming mobility challenges.
The search is on from April 15, 2016 through May 31, 2016 when NMEDA hopes to find those 3 Local Heroes and give them each a custom wheelchair accessible vehicle—no strings attached.
The top 3 Local Heroes to receive a customized wheelchair vehicle will be chosen from written or videotaped stories submitted to www.MobilityAwarenessMonth.com — The site has all the rules and regulations.
To enter:
Submit either a picture and written story (up to 400 words) or videotaped story (1-3 minutes) of how you have overcome or are dealing with mobility issues. Caregivers, friends and family members are also welcome to submit entries for others.
Submit written stories or upload videos at Mobility Awareness Month Website then encourage others to vote for you.
Important dates:
•Stories will be accepted starting April 15th, 2016.
•Voting to help determine the winners is May 1st – May 31st 2016.
•Winners will be announced by June 17th, 2015.
