Wheelchair cushion giveaway in Oakland! Pass it on!
At our new space at 10th and Broadway, Grassroots Open Assistive Tech (GOAT) has a lot of wheelchair cushions. If you have a wheelchair and need a cushion, check this list and speak up if you want one — you can come by to pick it up either tomorrow 11-4, or next week any day between 1 and 4. (Mornings are also possible.)
Here’s the list of sizes; the first measurement is width and the second is depth. All in inches.

We also have a HUGE amount of seat backs and slings for manual chairs, and while we haven’t inventoried them yet, they are in boxes easily accessible if you want to come by and dig through them.
Directions to the space: 10th and Broadway, Oakland, near 12th St. BART station. On 10th St, behind the Bookmark Bookstore, there is a metal gate and you will need to call to be let in! Email admin@openassistivetech.org for the number and for times we’ll be open this week and next. (We will have a wireless doorbell soon!)
