Meet Leilany!

 

 

Meet 16-year-old Leilany. She was diagnosed with quadriplegic cerebral palsy. She cannot stand or walk because of the illness. Leilany has endured multiple surgeries in hopes she can walk, but the results have been sadly unsuccessful. She uses a wheelchair to be independent.  Leilany, however, is cheerful despite her limitations.

 

Leilany has numerous interests. She watches the anime, My Hero Academia. Leilany is a fan of the Harry Potter films–she has a collection of wands that could fill up the Chamber of Secrets! She loves going to the mall and looking at the latest fashion trends. Leilany is also a dedicated student. She excels at the subjects math and science. She has tons of school spirit and hopes to be a cheerleader. This young lady is aptly named. In Hawaii, Leilany means Heavenly flower. Leilany is certainly beautiful in every way, and she is truly a gift from God. She inspires us all.

 

Leilany needs a wheelchair lift for her family vehicle. The lift will make it possible for her to travel  safely and comfortably. Please be her sponsor!

 

 

Leilany received a Harmar vehicle lift last week thanks to the continuous support and generosity of the White Family Foundation. Mom sent us the best explanation for this life changing event:
“Leilany’s face changed, she feels very happy that now we can go shopping and she can handle her chair, it is something that we had really searched for a long time and that for a reason we could not obtain, not everyone has the financial capacity to be able to pay for a team like this, but there are still places where they think about our children, about the need they have to be able to feel more independent and you guys changed the way we use to do things, you are really awesome!”
