When Mary applied to have a wheel chair ramp installed, she hoped it would be done quickly. Mary had not been able to safely leave her home for 12 months! Her world was looking out her window and watching life go by.
Mary’s first trip leaving her home safely for the first time in a year was to visit her granddaughter, in her granddaughters home.
Senior isolation is one of the most deadly impacts we face today. Having accessibility to get in and out of your home safely makes all the difference…thanks to King’s Daughters Organization.

“Betty is a client of our Representative Payee Program whose physician recommended surgery to improve her mobility and overall quality of life. While her doctor recommended a lift chair as an essential piece of her recovery, her insurance did not cover this expense. She lives on a fixed social security income and did not have room in her budget to purchase this equipment. Due to the generosity of the King's Daughters Organization, and the grant provided to Helping Hands, we were able to purchase a lift chair for Betty, and she is well on her way to recovery.
