FREE MOBILITY FOR A PERSON WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
Starting in May 2008, the MS Helping Hands-MSHH Donor Closet, a resource for recycling durable medical equipment (DME) & mobility equipment (ME), will hold a free monthly drawing to provide a free recycled scooter or power chair to a person with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) who resides in the State of Washington. These scooters and power chairs have been checked out, refurbished with new batteries and are ready for use.

To qualify for these monthly drawings, a person needs to provide proof from a doctor that he or she has MS and complete an MSHH Donor Closet Monthly Drawing Form available by E-mail: info@mshelp.org or by calling (425) 712-1804 to have one mailed to you. One drawing form is all that will be needed to be entered in all future drawings and the MS client need not be present at the drawing in order to win. He or she will be notified.

For a minimum suggested donation, recycled scooters, power chairs and other DME & ME items are also available to others who have been denied these items by Medicare, Medicaid, DSHS, private insurance companies and other social services agencies; are living on low income and/or have fallen through the cracks of the social services system.

Since October 1999, the Donor Closet has recycled over 56,000 DME & ME items and has provided over $110,000 in financial assistance grants to people with MS who reside in the State of Washington.

MS Helping Hands-MSHH & the Donor Closet is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) all volunteer corporation licensed & registered in the State of Washington and has the mission statement: “To provided services & resources to enhance the quality of life for people with Multiple Sclerosis.”

For information on additional services and resources available to people with MS who reside in the State of Washington, call (425) 712-1804.
