About this Fundraiser

Every 9-year-old deserves the chance to explore the world, go to school, and visit friends. For our bright and resilient Gianna, who is currently navigating life with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), these simple joys require a little extra help. At 9 years old, she continues to inspire everyone she meets while battling SMA. As she grows, so does the equipment she needs to stay mobile.

Gianna recently received a new, advanced power wheelchair that provides her with the support and independence she needs. However, this life-changing equipment has outgrown our current transportation. We are now in urgent need of a wheelchair-accessible vehicle that can safely accommodate Gianna and her newest chair.

An accessible vehicle is more than just a car for Gianna; it is her “wings.” It means:

Safety: Secure, crash-tested docking for her heavy power chair.

Access: Reliable transportation to her frequent medical appointments and therapies.

Inclusion: The ability to attend school, community events, and family outings alongside her peers.

The cost of a modified vehicle is significant, and we are reaching out to our amazing community to help us bridge the gap. Your donation, no matter the size, directly contributes to Gianna’s safety and her ability to experience the world outside her front door.

Thank you for being part of Gianna’s village. Please share her story!
