We are so excited to share the incredible story of Frank and Vivian, a local couple who reached out to the Center for Independent Living when they needed help the most.

After undergoing numerous surgeries, Frank now relies on a wheelchair for mobility and was facing significant challenges accessing his home safely. The Alexanders were left with no options and turned to us in the hopes of making their home more accessible. Thanks to the unwavering dedication of our team, we were able to build a custom wheelchair ramp for Frank, empowering him to regain his independence and safely enter and exit his home with ease.

Frank and Vivian are forever grateful for this life-changing improvement, and we are just as grateful to have been part of their journey. 💙

It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do—making sure that no one has to face mobility barriers alone. Together, we can continue to build a community where independence is achievable for all!

Video Description: Vivian is standing on their newly built wheelchair ramp that leads to their home. Tall trees can be seen behind the home and green grass surround the home and ramp. Vivian shares this message, “Gainesville, the city of Gainesville, Florida, and the Center for Independent Living. The Alexander family, thank you to the utmost. We thank you for what you have done for us! You have given us more light and this light. Thank you a million times over. You’re the bomb. Woohoo!” There is a solid blue background behind the video and a purple border. The CILNCF logo is displayed in white on the bottom center.
