The AbleMaker Wheelchair
Welcome to the AbleMaker Wheelchair crowdfunding campaign! I am excited to introduce an innovative solution that addresses a crucial need for many wheelchair users: the AbleMaker Wheelchair. This groundbreaking invention seamlessly converts an everyday wheelchair into a toilet chair, enabling users to roll over any standard toilet without the need for standing up or transferring, thus ensuring safety, privacy, and convenience.
About the AbleMaker Wheelchair
The AbleMaker Wheelchair is designed with the user’s independence and comfort in mind. Unlike the 8 existing products in the market, which require users to transfer from their wheelchair to a separate toilet chair, the AbleMaker Wheelchair eliminates this cumbersome and potentially risky step. With two functional arms and hands, users can easily convert their everyday wheelchair into a toilet chair, making it a truly versatile and essential tool for daily living.
Key Features:
- Seamless Conversion: Transform your wheelchair into a toilet chair effortlessly.
- Enhanced Safety: No need to stand or transfer, reducing the risk of falls and injuries.
- Privacy and Convenience: Roll over any standard toilet for a private and dignified experience.
- Motorized/Electric upgrade available
How You Can Help:
Your support is crucial in bringing the AbleMaker Wheelchair to those who need it most. By contributing to our campaign, you are not only helping to fund the production and distribution of this innovative product but also empowering disabled individuals to lead more independent lives.
Special Offer for Charitable Donors:
To show our appreciation for your generosity, we are offering a special gift to the first 25 donors who contribute $500 or more. These generous supporters will receive one of the first manufactured AbleMaker Wheelchairs with lifetime upgrades available as newer models emerge. This is our way of saying thank you for believing in our mission and helping us make a significant impact.
Important Note:
Due to the proprietary nature of the AbleMaker Wheelchair design, we are unable to share detailed images or schematics with the public at this time. However, we are happy to discuss the concept further with interested parties under a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
Join us in revolutionizing mobility and independence for wheelchair users. Your support can make a world of difference. Thank you for considering a contribution to the AbleMaker Wheelchair campaign.
Serious inquirers: to sign an NDA and view the design schematics send an email to iknowdannyjoe@icloud.com
