St. James AME Zion Benefit for Bernadette

Bernadette has been a quadriplegic with an incomplete spinal-cord injury since 1978 when she was in a car accident. Bernadette relies completely on her wheelchair for mobility. For over a year now, she has used a “loaner” wheelchair and has been unable to drive her accessible van because her wheelchair (for which her van was specifically adapted) has needed repairs.

Can we count on you to help us raise funds to assist Bernadette Thompson with obtaining a wheel chair replacement and related expenses? Any amount is appreciated and will make all the difference in Bernadette’s life as we strive to help her remain independent and continue to serve our church and community.

Donations can be sent to St. James’ Bernadette Thompson Fund:
St. James AME Church, 44 Hildebrand Street, Asheville, NC 28801
