Donating Adaptive Equipment (Wheel chairs, canes, walkers, & more...) Ms. Randi Cook is now in charge of Adaptive Inventory, and advises our friends wishing to donate adaptive equipment to SIL's Equipment Lending Program, that they can do so anytime between 9am-3pm on Tuesdays & Wednesdays or by appointment (To-Be-Arranged)by calling her at: (216) 731-1529 Ext. 310. Equipment must be clean and in good working order All individuals donating items will receive an acknowledgement letter that can be used for tax purposes. Primary Donation Rule SIL's very practical rule for any donation is this: "If you wouldn't use it yourself - Junk it!" WE NEED VOLUNTEERS !! SIL is trying to develop a list of volunteers who are willing and able to help us with projects that require some moderate lifting; such as moving furniture or equipment around the office. The need to do this does not happen very often and completing the job doesn't take very long, but it is extremely important that we have a few people who we can call when the need arises. If you or someone you know has some occasional free time, a way to get here and the ability to do some lifting and moving, PLEASE CALL RANDI at (216) 731- 1529 and she will be happy to add you to our list. ....It doesn't seem as though this would be a very difficult need to fill, but it is. So please keep us in mind and give us a call. You would be a great help to us.
