From Donation to Transformation
Children’s Assistive Technology Service (C.A.T.S.) accepts donations of gently used pediatric adaptive equipment such as wheelchairs, standers, and communication devices. Our skilled team carefully cleans and refurbishes each item, then works with a child’s medical team to ensure the right equipment reaches the right child.

Each piece is provided to families completely free of charge.

By giving this equipment a second life, we help children with disabilities improve health, mobility, independence, and opportunity while ensuring families have access to the essential tools they need.

“C.A.T.S. has truly been a lifeline for our family. They’ve helped give my son independence, mobility, and a chance to participate in life fully.”

C.A.T.S. provides assistive technology devices to children and families throughout Virginia at no cost
