Will you help me get around?  I need a wheelchair van so I can go to my doctor's appointments and take care of myself.

 

My name is Minna Talviharju.  I'm 23 years old and live in Fitchburg, MA.  I was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy & Reigers Syndrome, shortly after birth.  My life has been spent in a wheelchair.  It's not easy getting around because I don't have a lift van. I live with my mom (my father passed away in 1999 from cancer).   We've been unable to afford a lift van.  With your help we can.  When I have raised the funds, I'll be purchasing my lift van from Ride-Away in Londonderry , NH. Every dollar counts.  Please send all donations to Minna Talviharju Fund c/o Workers Credit Union 815 Main St. Fitchburg, MA 01420.  For more information please contact me or my mother at helena.ht@....  To see the van info go to www.rideaway.com.

If you are considering a substantial contribution, I would be happy to meet with you and answer any questions you may have.  I'll need a few days notice as I can't get around very well until I get my lift van.

 

Thanks for taking your time reading this and your kindness,

any money counts
