“It’s wheelchair day” one elementary student described to his class. “Spend a Day In My Wheels” at Friendship Christian School 2024 was a success! From Kindergarten to 12th grade everyone learned something about accessibility awareness. #ChangingTheWorld#NeverGiveUp
Had a great day at Lipscomb University today!!! Participants learned about the many difficulties people in wheelchairs face, and how to approach others with a entirely new perspective. Together we can change the world one challenge at a time!
Today was an amazing day! We laughed a lot but we learned the importance of accessibility and empathy. Thank you to my FCS family for always supporting my goal. #NeverGiveUp#ChangingTheWorld
Alex Johnson, 17, started the “Spend a Day in My Wheels” wheelchair challenge seven years ago when he was a student at Friendship Christian School. https://t.co/mUTGQEVcxR
A determined 17-year-old arranged for Wilson County decision-makers to spend a day in a wheelchair so they could see what his life is like. @In_My_Wheels: "Even if this challenge inspires someone to maybe not park in the handicap parking... then I call it a victory." @NC5
“Spend a Day In My Wheels” Wilson County Government and Lebanon Wilson Chamber of Commerce. Thank you to all the participants and everyone that made today a success. #ChangingTheWorld
Life in a wheelchair is different. A teen in Wilson County challenged community leaders to literally spend a day in his wheels. "At the very least we want them to start speaking out for the issues and start addressing problems," said Alex Johnson @In_My_Wheels@NC5
Challenge Accepted! Last night I was invited to tell the Wilson County Commission about “Spend a Day In My Wheels”. On February 6th Mayor Hutto and members of the Wilson County Government will participate in my challenge. #ChangingTheWorld
“Spend a Day In My Wheels” wheelchair challenge at the City of Clarksville Mayor’s Office. It was an educational, eye opening day! #ChangingTheWorld@PermobilCares
