 In March of 2010 we will have a live Telethon with TV34 Montclair, NJ and other serving PEG Stations as well as live Internet viewing. For the reason stated below. When I was spinal cord injured in 1987 I found it very hard, sometimes impossible to find resources for my special needs. In 1996 when I connected to the Internet I saw my life changed in many ways. I could find resources that improved my home, from getting a wheelchair shower, a ramp to get out my house and equipment to assist me in my health. I also was able to find lost family and friends, be able to communicate with them and find things to do to help me get my mind off my disability. Anything from transportation to get out and make appointments, learn what my life was experiencing with the disability and improve my social networking. My emotional level improved because now I could find adaptive equipment in continuing my goals and aspirations. All because of a Computer....... 1 year on the computer and Internet made up for decades stuck in my house. That's because many of the ways to find information is rarely to ever listed. Can you imagine your life not having the abilities you have today and everyday there is another spinal or head injury in our world. We want to provide people with special needs the hands, feet and resources in their lives from supplying them with computers/laptops. But not just a device but a device with pre-installed resources linking them to all their needs. You can help make this possible by donating new, used or refurbished computers/laptops that are able to be used. Donate to our organization that will make purchasing equipment possible and spread this information to others that can help this worthy cause. To contact , please click on Contact Us. Anyone can help. Thank you, Richard Gaskin - President of IBI
