Viscardi Campaign View Book - 1

DR. VISCARDI'S LEGACY
Born without fully-formedĀ legs, Dr. Henry Viscardi, Jr., was given his first
set of prosthetics at the age of 26. Refusing thanks or money, the doctor
told him, ''Just bring to others what I brought to you and I'll be well
repaid.''

The doctor could have never imagined the tremendous impact Dr.
Viscardi would have on the lives of people with disabilities. Over the
course of his life, Dr. Viscardi was a tirelessĀ advocate for people with
disabilities, served as disability advisor to eight presidents, and founded
or was prominently involved in many organizations serving people with
disabilities. He spent his life spreading his staunch belief in the abilities,
not disabilities, of all people.

In his book, Give Us The Tools (1959), Viscardi wrote that given the right
tools, people with disabilities can live integrated and active lives. For
over 65 years, The Viscardi Center has provided the educational,
emotional, and physical tools through education, services, programming,
technology, and job training to help the members of our community
throughout their lifetimes.

In the spirit of Dr. Viscardi, we ask you to
Give Us the Tools
to build the future of The Viscardi Center
