Does anyone know how i can get a grant to get a wheelchair lift for my wifes van. I am in a electric wheelchair and we don't have the money to pay for a lift. My insurance not going to. Because of all the high co payments we pay every month, for my meds and doctors. I have to stay at home now. If anyone would know I would me greatful. THANK YOU WE PAYED 39.95 TO GET INFORMATION ON A GRANT AND IT WASN'T WORTH ANYTHING, ALL WE GOT WAS DIFFERENT WEB SITES THAT WANTED MORE MONEY FOR INFORMATION. THANKS AGAIN

I don't know if this will help or not, contact the division of vocational rehabilitation center,it's in Little Rock.They should be able to assist you or point you in the right direction.

To save time, too, you can contact your largest local hospital's social services dept. They have a lot of resources and may know of some little known organizations.

Do you belong to a church? Sometimes they can help or network to help you. In our area, there is a central non-denominational organization that helps people with obtaining medical supplies. You could also call the base chapel at Little Rock AFB and tell them your dilemma. Military people are some of the most generous in the world.
