Meet Stephanie

At the age of 6, Stephanie’s life changed forever when she was involved in a car accident that left her with a completely severed spinal cord at the T10 level. Since then, she has navigated life as a wheelchair user.

After years of using the same wheelchair, Stephanie found herself facing new challenges. Her aging chair had become too heavy to maneuver independently and was causing health issues, including pressure sores from improper seating mechanics.

Thanks to her Victory Scholarship, Stephanie was able to obtain a new wheelchair that is 40% lighter, custom-fitted to her body, and constructed with more durable materials.

"Because of my Victory Scholarship I will have an everyday chair that gives me the freedom to independently, safely, and comfortably access the world around me," Stephanie shares.

This new chair has not only improved Stephanie's mobility but has also renewed her independence, allowing her to navigate daily life with greater ease and confidence.
