On
May28, 2003 Vasile Stoica, a Guinness World Record holder and the
first Romanian to travel around the world by manual wheelchair,
became the first paraplegic to travel Route 66 from Los Angeles to
Chicago, journeying completely on his own and powered only by his
hands. He undertook this amazing 66-day feat to raise awareness
for disability issues in his home country, as well as gather funds
for the Association for the Physically Disabled of Lugoj in
Romania, which recently lost its central headquarters and one of
its members to a fire. Funds raised for the non-profit
organization are going toward the purchase of a new building, as
well as to replace computers, medical, and sports equipment lost
in the blaze.
More
support is needed. Please take time to view the photos and other
information on this site to see how you can help!
