hris Lewis, American Wheelchair Mission President, recently hosted an appreciation dinner for Prince of Peace Catholic Community Pastor Tom Cloherty, to thank him for his support of the mission. After dinner, Chris thanked Father Tom and proceeded to name Father as the first ever recipient of the Mobility Hero Award. This award took 3 years to develop and is made of 10 lb of bronze with a handmade wooden stand and box. There is an image of a wheelchair recipient on the disc with arms extended and palms pointed upward. What a beautiful tribute it is to Father Tom who has been so supportive of this mission.
