looking for help

I would like to take a minute and ask for any help I can get from FTE,

Below is an article from our local news paper about a Christian Brother of mine,

Al has been a member of our church for a long time and was glad to serve his country in a time of need, he now is wheel chair bound and needs 24 hour a day assistance, this week My wife remodeled and tiled their shower to make it handicap accessible, I will be renting a grade tractor to make their lot accessible and many other people have donated what they could. The house remodel was over $7,000.00 and the government only paid $4,000.00 so this leaves a lot to make up. also they will need a handicap van with a special lift, the government has allocated $7,000.00 to cover this (which will neither cover the van nor the lift)<O</O
If anyone knows ways to get more grants or other help please post or PM me, at least pray for al and Elizabeth</ST1 and their children. Or if you happen to have an extra van let me know<O</O

if he can use a wheelchair ramp as opposed to an electric lift conversion, ive seen the ones you bolt into full size vans for sale on ebay. I would also search handicap vans online and see if you can find a dealer or custom shop that will work with you to see whatever grants can be gotten...
