Community Partnership Delivers Mobility Equipment to Central Texas Veterans and Residents

The partnership between A Place At Home – North Austin and ShareTheWill Foundation has resulted in the donation of more than 34 power wheelchairs, scooters, hospital beds, and other essential medical equipment to veterans and individuals across Central Texas communities. This collaboration represents a significant effort to address mobility challenges and enhance quality of life for those facing physical limitations.

For Stacey Eisenberg, owner of A Place At Home – North Austin, the initiative began when a medical lending library in the Austin and Round Rock area closed last year. Compassion and service are at the heart of everything we do, said Eisenberg. When we see a need, we act. It is a whole family priority for us. Our kids are instrumental in the process. Working with Will and ShareTheWill has allowed us to reach even more people who deserve comfort, dignity, and mobility.

Will Williams, a 26-year Army Ranger veteran and founder of the ShareTheWill Foundation, emphasized the organization's broader community focus. Obviously we share a lot with veterans and the veteran community that means so much to us, but we'll help anyone in the community who we can and is in need, he said. The foundation maintains an active presence through programs detailed on their website at https://sharethewill.org.

The recent donation event distributed a power scooter to a local veteran and a power wheelchair to another community member, continuing the organizations' pattern of direct assistance. A Place At Home – North Austin provides services throughout multiple Central Texas communities and maintains information about their programs at https://aplaceathome.com/north-austin.

Both organizations have demonstrated that community partnerships can create meaningful change by addressing specific, practical needs that significantly impact daily living. This ongoing collaboration represents more than just equipment distribution—it embodies a model of community-driven support where local organizations identify gaps in services and work together to fill them. The success of their partnership suggests that similar cooperative efforts could be replicated in other communities facing similar challenges with mobility equipment access and veteran support services, potentially creating a blueprint for addressing healthcare accessibility gaps through localized charitable initiatives.
