Lone Star Paralyzed Veterans of America Donates Disability Bus to RISE
Posted on December 13th, 2009 4 comments
Our great friends at the LSPVA donated their bus to RISE Adventures this week. Chris Goad heads the Texas Thunder Event Committee and was desperately looking for accessible transportation with a lift. His task was to be able to transport quad rugby teams flying in from numerous other states to and from the airport and the tournament. He reached a lot of dead ends but was finally blessed. He sought to borrow the PVA bus for the weekend. They really didn’t use the vehicle as much as they would have liked so made a donation to RISE so we could transport groups to and from our programs. From everyone at TEAM RISE, thanks to all of you at the Lone Star Paralyzed Veterans Association for supporting RISE and our very important mission. Special thanks goes to Glendon Bentley and Eric Payton, you guys are the best, THANK YOU!News Accessible, Adaptive, Disability, Lone Star Paralyzed Veterans of America, North Texas, RISE Adventures, Texas, Wheelchair4 responses to “Lone Star Paralyzed Veterans of America Donates Disability Bus to RISE”

To everybody at the Lone Star PVA, Thank you!!! You guy’s are so active in the community and we don’t always get a chance to thank you for all that you gave when you served our country and all that you do to improve the quality of life of anybody and everybody that you can with whom you come in contact with. We have all been blessed by your unselfishness, your kindness, your genuine interest and desire to see programs succeed and get off the ground that not only benefit your own members but everybody. For all you do, it doesn’t go unnoticed…we can only hope to emulate your actions and duplicate the deeds…We love and thank you.

I was surfing the site above and found a really good website named FreedomDisability.com that can really help you if you are disabled. This domain address has really good information that can help people with disabilities who live in the United States apply for Disability Benefits and win. This website offers a lot of helpful tips and information where you can get free information on how to successfully apply for and win Disability Insurance with the Social Security Administration (SSA).

: Yesterday was truly a lifetime experience for my son as well as our family. I was always afraid for my son to do certain activities especially dealing with water when either of us swim. He loved everything especially the jet ski. Thank you for showing us that there are no limits. we are looking to become a part of a team such as yours. I thank God for wonderful people as yourself.You all are truly a blessing to our family. I will see you in the near future to see whatever else my son can do.
: My son really enjoyed getting to play a couple of holes of golf today at North Texas Golf Center. It was great to see him not only enjoying swinging the golf club (and making contact with the ball!)but also being able to chat with his RISE friends.
: I really had a great time at the water sports at Lake Grapevine, especially riding in the motorboat and getting to help steer the sailboat. But I think my favorite activity was riding on the jet ski, which really surprised my mom who never thought I would ever get on a jet ski!!!
: This was truly the best day of my sons life where it was just enjoying the outdoors. WE experienced things we wanted to do & things we were afraid of & I truly appreciated it. THANKS
: I just wanted to Thank Rick and Annette Brauer for such a wonderful time last Saturday sailing in the open waters. I had such a "GREAT TIME" can't wait till the next time we get to go out. Thank You again!!!!!!
