A part of the Mid-Atlantic Catastrophic Injury Fund
Who I Am
39-year-old Julie was born in the Caribbean. Gun violence caused a T-10 spinal cord injury when she was 17 years old. She is a single mother of three.
Why I Fundraise
“Insurance does not help with accessible transportation. I want to purchase a customized van with hand controls.”
How I Hope
“I’ve overcome many challenges. The moment you’re ready to quit is usually the moment right before a miracle happens. I’ve never stopped thanking God for my life.”
