Mods, if this type of thing is not allowed, please let me know as I want to be respectful of the rules.
Before my car accident this week, I entered a contest to win an adapted van --a van with a built-in lift--one that is scooter and wheelchair accessible. It would mean the WORLD to me to win a van! I can no longer use the behind-the-car lift on my car as I injured myself tightening the straps on it. Plus, now my car is out of commission and may not be repairable --so I'll be without transportation.
Winning an adapted van would mean that I could be more active in my community by being able to take my scooter with me. I could volunteer more and be more active in the community service organization that I am the President of. I would also be able to give rides to others here in my apartment complex (I live in a complex for people with neurological disabilities) as there is no reliable paratransit system where I live (We're not within Harris County, so no Metrolift).
You can vote once every 24 hours until the contest ends the first week of May. Please take a moment each day and vote for me! It would mean a LOT!!

Contest to win an adapted van --please vote for me!
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Everyone needs to 
on this.
It takes literally zero
e: I went ahead and shared it on my Facebook and Twitter accounts also, hope you don't mind. I know people on both of those who would be inclined to give votes.

No problem, Sheenar! I really hope this works out for you.

Done. I also shared this on facebook; I know several people who would vote (and who would understand your situation).

Thank you all for voting! 
I'm very, very far behind in votes (like over 1,500 votes behind the leaders) --but I really appreciate the show of support!
Even if I don't win in the contest, God is faithful and will meet my needs in some other way.
