Meet Leighton Smith — a bright and beautiful 2-year-old girl who was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP) and Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) from a birth injury. Despite these challenges, Leighton’s spirit shines, and her parents, Bri and Nathan, are doing everything in their power to support her development and independence.
They’ve been paying out-of-pocket for specialized therapy sessions with experts like Dana at All Kids Are Perfect, giving Leighton access to some of the best care available. Now, Leighton is reaching a stage in her journey where accessibility is no longer optional — it’s essential.
To safely transport her to therapies, school, and outings, the family urgently needs a wheelchair-accessible vehicle, which ranges from $50,000–$60,000. In addition, their home requires critical accessibility renovations:
-
Lift system to safely carry Leighton upstairs – $20,000
-
Bathroom access and home entry modifications
-
Widened doorways and additional structural updates – starting at $20,000
These are life-changing needs that no family should face alone. This is where we come in.
Let’s rally around Leighton and help lift this financial burden. Every donation — big or small — brings them closer to a more accessible, safer future for their daughter.
💛 Bri will be posting updates here about Leighton's journey, progress, and the impact your support is making. Let’s show this family that they’re not alone.
Give. Share. Support. Together, we can help build a world where Leighton thrives.
