Give Someone A New Life With Your Old Segway
By Donating your Segway to the Segs4Vets program of Draft - Disablity Advocates For Technology (www.DRAFT.cc) you can help an Americian Veteran of the Iraq war who has lost their mobility, regain it.
It’s a great time to buy a new Segway product, with all the colors and options available now, and even a better time to help a returning soldier who has lost a leg. DRAFT’s Segs4Vets Program needs both new and refurbished Segways to meet its goal.
This September, just before the SEG America’s SegwayFest DC event, DRAFT awarded Segway HT I-180’s to Three veterns at the United States Capitol Building. Hilbert Caesar, Keith Davis, and Kevin Pannell wounded in battle while serving in Iraq resulting in the amputation of their leg, and in Pannell’s case both legs found that with the Segway HT they could resume much of their mobility.
If you make the donation before New Years Eve you’ll not only be changing the life of one of our Segs4Vets honorees or other worthwhile disabled recipients, but you’ll also be entitled to a charitable deduction for your 2005 Federal Income Taxes!
If you would like to donate money or a Segway to DRAFT contact us either by e-mail; gkerr@draft.cc or by telephone; 314-965-4938. We’ll ship you a Segway shipping box with the packing materials inside and a prepaid label for the return shipping. Simply disassemble your Segway, repackage it in the provided box and ship it off to DRAFT.
If your Segway has mechanical problems let us know because we may need to ship it to Segway Inc. in Bedford, New Hampshire for repairs instead of to St. Louis. Once we receive your Segway we will perform any necessary refurbishment to it prior to placing it into adoption.
DRAFT will also let you know where your Segway has been placed. We’ll let you know who the recipient of your Segway was, and on our web site we’ll profile our recipients and our donors. DRAFT will always respect the privacy of our donors and will honor any donor’s request to remain anonymous.
