SEER Group

Tuesday, December 18th, 2012

Someone recently told us we needed to be more clear about who we are and what we do at SEER Group. So we figured we would :)

We are a non-profit construction group. Our goal is really simple. To provide freedom for people in chairs through wheelchair accessibility ramp. Life comes at us fast, and our world can be forever changed in a second. This need, one most of us had never considered, is now a necessity. Insurance rarely covers the cost of a ramp, and as children grow larger, parents aren’t able to haul them in and out of their homes like they used to.

A friend opened our eyes to this new world, and we are forever grateful. We have now been able to partner up with area businesses, Seer Outfitters, and many of you to install over 100 wheelchair ramps free of charge. Our hope is that in the coming years that number will continue to grow. And that we will get to continue to do this with you, so please, share with us others who may be in need. We would love your support, you can find a link to both help us locate potential families who are in need of a ramp, or help fund our next one in the bar to the left.

DO THE KIND THING

Tuesday, July 31st, 2012

It is a great honor to partner with KIND’s Do the KIND Thing program and be able to give back to the city that has been so wonderful to me for the past couple of years. Our foundation will continue to have a presence here, even as I head to Atlanta. Through the partnership with Do the KIND Thing, we will be able to provide new school uniforms to hundreds of children in Chicago as they head back to school this year.

A NEW ALLIANCE

Monday, July 30th, 2012

A fresh start. A new normal. Giving kids the advantages we don’t even remember we had. We never worried about whether we had a bag for books or pencils to write with. How can we ask children to achieve without giving them simplistic means to do that?

The KKF is partnering with Groupon Grassroots this week to make sure our kids in Philly do have those means. Follow the link to become a part of the solution: http://www.groupon.com/deals/grs-helping-hand-rescue-mission

LOOK AT WHAT YOU BOUGHT!

Tuesday, July 24th, 2012

Last week we were in Omaha, installing hoops and getting to spend time with the folks at the Abide Network. Because of you all’s generosity, we were able to give them a check from the #BetterTogether shirts we’ve sold.

Later that day, we asked Mr. Dotzler what his plans were for the money you had raised. He said, “Oh, well we bought a house.” :) This home is about to begin the process of making it livable, for an incredible family in North Omaha. Now that is really, really, really COOL!
