MOBILIZING LOVE 2011

 

Shelly is singing her way to mission this fall.

In October, 2011, Shelly will be headed to the Dominican Republic on a Mission Trip.  This is a first in what is planned to be an annual effort. Check out her Mission Statement for this project.

Mission Statement
I give beyond myself: I help physically challenged kids around the world by providing access to the people, services, and equipment that will enrich and improve their lives.

Goal

I will make one mission trip each year to lend my expertise and talent as a Certified Rehabilitation Technology Supplier. I will collaborate with an existing agency that collects used mobility equipment to be shipped to other areas of the world where it is needed.  I will work with others to fit, adapt, and modify wheelchairs and other mobility equipment as well as train others to continue this work.

When

In October 2011, I will take a one-week mission trip to the Dominican Republic.

How

I will perform concerts and sing at churches to raise funds to cover the expenses of this trip and to increase awareness of the need.
In 2011, I will work with therapists from Children’s Hospital and with Mission Emanuel.
