This quarter's ImproveGiving donation goes to https://mlf.org/community-first/. When asked why she wanted to support this organization, our Operations Administrator Alyssa said "Homelessness is a problem in our community, and not one that can be dismissed or brushed under a rug. This organization sees our homeless population not as a blight, but as people who deserve housing, security, and a beginning. I hope that this type of neighborhood becomes commonplace in big cities with the same issues. I personally believe that the way we treat the most in need, is a direct reflection on who we are as a society and I truly believe that this organization is helping our society to be the best we can be."
Community First! Village - Mobile Loaves & Fishes A 51-acre master planned community providing affordable, permanent housing and a supportive community for men and women coming out of chronic homelessness.

So nice to be appreciated! This is a thank you note we got from the wife of an ALS veteran.
"To all the ImproveAbility Team, I can't begin to express how much both M (veteran with ALS) and I appreciated all of you. Your assistance in making his time quality and offering him some sense of independence means so much. We also enjoyed your visits. You are a terrific group!
Thank you so much,
(Wife of Veteran)"

When I saw this client’s name come across my desk, I recognized it and wondered how he was doing. It is often that we do not see how our work affects someone, so I was so grateful to get this lovely review. “I am quadriplegic. Around 10 years ago, I had an excellent experience with Ms. Antoinette that literally changed my life. Recently, I had the opportunity to work with her again, and she remains just as dedicated, professional, amicable, and helpful as before. I highly recommend ImproveAbility!”

Well, it’s the End Of An Era! Said goodbye to old blue today - I owned her for 11 years and between me and ImproveAbility we put 220,000 miles on her. She served us well.

Hearing how our work impacts our client's on a daily basis keeps us motivated to do the best job we can. Below please see a message from a recently deceased client's caregiver.
"ImproveAbility did so much to help my father. All of you were so patient with my father and committed to helping him regardless of the funding denials and curveballs.
My father loved and practiced on the EyeGaze every other day up until his hospitalization. He controlled the EyeGaze with his eyes perfectly. We and my mom were touched when my father would select “Grilled Cheese Sandwich” or “Im cold”. We also used the EyeGaze to work on his occupational therapy and had him also select options with his hand.
The EyeGaze was more than just another device to him, it meant the world and ImproveAbility had not given up on him so he did his part using it. We are forever thankful to you and his SLP for finding tools like the EyeGaze to help my father. We are forever thankful for ImproveAbility repairing my father’s power chair when the funding agency was forcing more doctor consults and purchase orders."
