Mobili-Tee Time: Putt for a Purpose!

A Little Mini Golf, a Lot of Fun, and a Whole Lot of Heart!

Get ready to putt for a purpose! Mobility Worldwide San Antonio invites you to join us for Mobili-Tee Time, a fun-filled morning of mini golf, laughter, friendly competition, and fundraising on Saturday, November 7, from 9:00 AM to noon at the Ice & Golf Center at Northwoods!

This isn’t your ordinary round of mini golf! We’re putting a fun twist on the game with special challenges throughout the 18-hole course. Imagine putting blindfolded, taking a shot backward between your legs for “Granny’s Got Game,” using a hockey stick instead of a putter, or testing your skills with your opposite hand. You might even get the chance to experience mobility firsthand by riding one of our hand-powered Mobility Carts!

With 12 creative challenges, there will be plenty of laughs, surprises, and memorable moments along the way. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or haven’t picked up a putter in years, everyone can join the fun! Bring your children, grandchildren, friends, neighbors, or coworkers. All ages and skill levels are welcome!

And the fun doesn’t stop on the golf course! We’ll have raffle prizes, local vendors, and opportunities to learn more about how Mobility Worldwide is changing lives around the world. Raffle tickets can be purchased in advance, and drawings will take place periodically throughout the morning. You do not need to be present to win!

Best of all, your participation supports a mission that truly makes a difference. Every $400 raised helps Mobility Worldwide San Antonio build another hand-powered Mobility Cart, giving someone with limited mobility greater independence, dignity, and freedom.

Putt for a Purpose — Because Every Stroke Can Change a Life!

We Did It! Over $45,000 Raised for Mobility Worldwide San Antonio!

Thanks to our incredible community of donors and generous matching sponsors, Mobility Worldwide San Antonio exceeded our $45,000 Big Give fundraising goal!

The Big Give 2026 was a tremendous success, and we couldn’t have done it without YOU!

This year’s campaign brought together 63 generous donors, including 18 sponsors who contributed an incredible $26,000 toward our fundraising efforts. Together, through individual donations and sponsorship matches, we raised just over $45,000!

Every gift, large or small, contributed to this remarkable achievement and will help us continue our mission of providing mobility, independence, and dignity to individuals around the world.

At Mobility Worldwide San Antonio, each hand-powered Mobility Cart costs approximately $400 to build. That means the funds raised during this campaign represent the equivalent of more than 112 Mobility Carts! Each cart has the potential to transform someone’s life, offering the freedom to travel to school, work, church, or simply participate more fully in everyday activities.

We extend a special thank-you to our 18 generous sponsors, whose combined $26,000 in support played a tremendous role in our success. Their generosity, along with the contributions of our individual donors, demonstrates what can happen when a community comes together for a common purpose.

Whether you made a donation, sponsored a match, shared our campaign, or encouraged others to give, you played a part in making this possible.

The Big Give may last only a short time, but the impact of your generosity will be felt for years to come.

From all of us at Mobility Worldwide San Antonio, THANK YOU for believing in our mission and helping us give the gift of mobility!

Together, we’re changing lives—one cart at a time.

Distribution Adventures

Four fuzzy little mobility mascots. After a successful offload, Joe and Ana headed to a local no-kill animal shelter with their four tiny passengers. With documentation filled out to the best of their ability, all four kittens were safely turned over to the shelter. It was an emotional moment for Ana, who had spent the morning focused on delivering mobility carts and suddenly found herself responsible for four more little lives.

What had begun as a straightforward delivery had become quite an adventure.

Yet through every unexpected turn, the mission continued!

Thirty-seven mobility carts reached DIF Nuevo Laredo. Four kittens reached safety. And after roughly ten hours of driving, unloading, problem-solving, paperwork and roadside repairs, our exhausted crew finally made it home around 5:00 p.m.

There is a tremendous amount of work behind every mobility cart we deliver. We often celebrate the volunteers who cut, weld, grind, paint and assemble them—and rightly so. But the work does not end when the final bolt is tightened.

Someone still has to get those carts where they need to go.

This trip was a perfect picture of the heart behind Mobility Worldwide San Antonio. Scott, Joe, Ana and Randy gave an entire day to the mission, handled every surprise thrown their way, and kept going until the job was finished.

And behind those four exhausted travelers stood dozens of Big Build volunteers whose hands had helped make this delivery possible.

From a crowded shop in San Antonio, to two trailers on the highway, to 37 people who will have greater mobility, independence, and dignity, this is what it looks like when a community comes together to give the gift of mobility.

And apparently, every once in a while, the journey includes kittens.

A litter of kittens had somehow tucked themselves away inside the trailer and made the entire journey from Pipe Creek to Nuevo Laredo.

Suddenly, our team had another delivery to make.

Nancy's Gift to Mobility

Nancy Guinn has found an extraordinary way to turn other people’s unwanted belongings into mobility, independence, and hope.

Since 2022, Nancy has collected donated household and personal items and taken responsibility for everything that happens next. She sorts through donations, determines what can be reused or sold, recycles what she can, redistributes items where they can do the most good, and carefully identifies the best outlet for items with resale value. She makes weekly—and often twice-weekly—trips to a resale shop approximately 20 miles from her home. She also sells items through eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and other resale outlets, always looking for the best opportunity to turn something unwanted into something valuable.

The hours Nancy has devoted to this effort are simply too many to count.

And neither is the impact small. Since 2022, Nancy’s efforts have generated approximately $25,000 for Mobility Worldwide San Antonio. Every dollar has come from her willingness to do the work most people never see: collecting, loading, unloading, sorting, photographing, listing, communicating with buyers, making deliveries, recycling, and driving countless miles.

What makes Nancy so deserving of recognition is her remarkable resourcefulness and consistency. She saw value where others saw things they no longer needed and created a sustainable way to transform those items into support for people who desperately need mobility.

At approximately $400 to build a mobility cart, the funds Nancy has raised represent the equivalent of more than 60 mobility carts—and potentially more than 60 people whose lives can be changed through greater independence, dignity, and freedom.

Nancy demonstrates that service does not have to be flashy to be extraordinary. Much of her work happens quietly, one donated item, one listing, one sale, and one 20-mile trip at a time. She asks for no recognition. She simply keeps doing the work.

Nancy Guinn is proof that when generosity is combined with determination, creativity, and an incredible work ethic, even unwanted things can become life-changing gifts.

It is our privilege to nominate Nancy and to recognize the thousands of unseen hours she has given in service to the mission of Mobility Worldwide San Antonio.
