Friends of Disabled Adults and Children
History: More than three decades ago, a couple refurbished and repaired wheelchairs in their garage, then gave the equipment away to people in need. This was transformed into Friends of Disabled Adults and Children (FODAC) in 1997.
Did you know: FODAC has a thrift store and a variety of services for people with disabilities. Its 64,800-square-foot office building houses wheelchairs, hospital beds, walkers, shower supports, and other medical supplies and equipment. For those in need, there is no charge for medical supplies and equipment beyond a one-time $25 registration fee.
Motto: "We seek to enhance the quality of life for people of all ages who have any type of illness or physical disability."
How you can help: Be of assistance by donating, shopping, volunteering or making a financial contribution. Every donation of time or resource can make a huge difference in the lives of disabled adults and children.
