Rainbow Grant Recipients

Last Updated: January 28th, 2012



JRF GRANTS NICKY IPAD!

Here is a picture of Nicky enjoying the iPad with his big brother! The most unexpected bonus of this iPad is that these 2 have something to bond with!! My oldest son couldn’t find a way to connect with Nicky before, which, as you can imagine, has been very hard. Not anymore! Nicky also loves the Talking Tom cat app. It repeats everything you say which really has been motivating him to say more words!! Thank you so much!! We are forever grateful!



JRF GRANTS IAN SEAT BELT HARNESS!

On September 11th, the Hatzell family donated $100 to Johnny’s Rainbow Foundation.  The family raised this money by selling hotdogs at a community yard sale.  The Hatzell family donated to show their appreciation of Johnny’s Rainbow Foundation, who had previously provided a grant that went toward the purchase of their son, Ian’s, life-saving seat belt harness.  A special thank you to the Hatzell family for giving back to Johnny’s Rainbow Foundation!



JRF GRANTS MELODY A TRIKE!
Because of the rainbow grant, Melody received this spectacular adult trike for Christmas! As you can see, she is delighted with the bike, the freedom and independence that she has to ride it at her leisure. She is still learning the “ways of the road” so until those skills are mastered she rides mostly with supervision. She can sit proudly atop her trike as we cruise through town - not feeling embarrassed riding a two wheeler with training wheels. She loves to ride while her sisters scooter or ride next to her – and no longer needs to ride behind Sam on a third wheel. She is especially thrilled with the basket and all the things she can tote around but I think her favorite thing is the bell!



JRF GRANTS THOMAS IPOD TOUCH!
Thomas is thoroughly enjoying his ipod touch. He loves to watch all his favorite videos on youtube and look at his favorite pictures on google. He could not be more amazed or happy to have such a wonderful device. He also likes to listen to his favorite songs and watch his favorite movies. Thank you so much for this great gift!
