Meet Lillian!
Meet 17-year-old Lilli! Lilli was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and is unable to walk without assistance. She currently uses both a power chair and a manual chair to get around. She is a twin and her sister and her are inseparable! Although her mobility is restricted, she doesn’t let her limitations bring her spirits down.
Lilli has a radiant personality that can light up any room! She has lots of fun interests, as well. She has been a girl scout for many years and has accomplished several service projects in her community. She has a passion for art and drawing. She enjoys mythical novels, such as the Wings of Fire series. Her current taste in music is alt-pop, which includes artists such as AJR and Imagine Dragons. She is a fan of local Tampa Bay sports teams, the Buccaneers and the Lightning. Lilli is a remarkable young woman whose drive and passion for helping others shines through and through and she remains cheerful and positive throughout any situation!
Lilli received the Airhawk, a lightweight power wheelchair. Her vehicle is not accessible and her current chair weighs 350 pounds, making it difficult to transport. A lighter chair will now make travel safer and easier for her family. Special thanks to the Suncoast Credit Union Foundation and the South St. Pete Suncoast Credit Union for sponsoring her new chair and hosting her presentation!
