Emmett's Orange Hippos' Accessible Van Fund

Emmett is a typical 11 year old boy who loves school, enjoys participating in almost every club and activity that is offered at school. He loves camping and hiking. He's on his school's cross country team. Emmett is atypical in that he has a rare disease, Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Type 1. He got his first power wheelchair when he was 16 months old. His parents got a used wheelchair van at that time, and now it is time to consider replacing it with a new vehicle. We are holding this silent auction to raise funds for this replacement vehicle which is a very necessary and integral part of Emmett and his family's life.
