Guillen-Barre Syndrome Won't Stop Ileana!

Want to join me in making a difference? We are raising money to benefit Liberty Access Foundation Inc, and any donation will help make an impact on Ileana's life by massively changing the accessibility in her home. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to her and me.

Here is the status of the amount raised and how the money will be used. It is broken up into various jobs in Ileana's home.

1. Doors
Change the Master Bedroom, Master closet, and Laundry door to be Accessible. These doorways are too small and do not allow her wheelchair to access these rooms easily. They will be widened and fully accessible.
AMOUNT NEEDED $2170 TOTAL RECEIVED TO DATE $1195 Balance needed $975

2. Toilet and Closet Walls
Demo the wall between the toilet and closet, and extend the wall approx 12" into the closet room, creating a smaller but adequate closet of approx 6x7. The toilet room will then be enlargened to approx 4x7, giving additional space for the wheelchair, grab bars and additional usage.
