Meet Gabriel “Gabe”!
Fourteen-year-old Gabe is a joyful teenager who lights up every room they’re in with their contagious laughter. Gabe was diagnosed with Quadriplegic Spastic Cerebral Palsy at birth. Despite his challenges, including multiple back surgeries and lengthy hospital stays, Gabe remains sociable and grateful to everyone in his life.
Gabe loves hanging out with his friends at school and participating in his engineering class, working on various robotics projects. He enjoys listening to Christian worship music, playing Uno, and watching Wheel of Fortune with his family. His favorite colors are hunter green and red because he loves representing his school pride. He likes eating pizza, grilled cheese, and hamburgers.
Gabe received a new wheelchair after outgrowing his previous one. Having a wheelchair that properly fits his needs has given him greater freedom and independence, allowing him to travel on family vacations, visit friends, and participate in school field trips with confidence.
Thanks to the generosity of his sponsors, Gabe now has the mobility equipment he needs to stay active and engaged in the activities he enjoys. This life-changing gift will help this cheerful, outgoing young man continue exploring the world around him and sharing his bright spirit with everyone he meets.
