Carter Needs New Wheels!
Donation protected
My honourary younger brother, Carter Jones, who you may know from his company Handicapped n' Hustlin', Country Music Concerts or cruising around the Calgary area in his old beat up wheel chair.
Carter and I met at stampede in 2018 and shortly there after I became his caregiver, sister he never had, and best friend. To this day Carter and I remain very close, despite the geographical distance life has put between us.
Carter hasnt had it easy by any means… living with Cerebral Palsy has its obvious challenges (although he doesn’t let that stop him!) but he has also been through a lot in his young life! Losing his mother to cancer shortly before he graduated highscool, navigating that loss while entering adulthood left Carter leaning on his Dad for support. Unfortunately Carters dad passed away in June 2022, leaving Carter to really dig up his inner independence (he’s done amazing!)
“My name is Carter Jones,
I am 22, years old; I was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at a very young age... BUT I have not let that limit me!
"Confined" to a wheelchair. Ya... Sure.
I have always had a passion for vehicles of all kinds since childhood. I was always washing and detailing my friends and family members cars; as I have gotten older, my knowledge and love for detailing continues to grows.
I decided to start a detailing business in February of 2020. This started off as a simple Facebook ad, to kick start a second income, and quickly became my dream come true .
I am now partnered as a Brand Ambassador with "Owners Pride Detailing Solutions", as we work together I strive to give you services above and beyond the industry standards.“
Carter has made not only his late parents, but all of his friends and family very proud and the least we can do is help the guy get around!
This young, humble man is now in dier need of a new power wheelchair... Running a business, started from the ground at 20 years old, doesnt leave much room for savings or good health benefits for something the system considers "a luxury". Carter relies entirely on his power wheelchair to not only get around, for things like groceries, but his entire business.
Carter's current chair is pooched, and he desperately needs a new one! Time and time again he and I have duct taped, zip tied, electrical taped and super glued bits and pieces of that chair... this time its just not going to cut it.
I am really hoping we can raise some, if not all of the funds needed for Carter to purchase a new chair ASAP!
Any additional funds above what’s needed for Carter to get a new chair, will be put towards Carters old van and Titan, Carters high maintenance old St Bernard! ❤️
Thank you, thank you, thank you. ❤️
