My awesome brother Greg (aka Toshio) and his good friend Caitlin (aka Lulu) founded Where's Lulu after seeing a huge need in the disabled community.
Where's Lulu is the first pro-disability company of its kind. It's a free online community where people with disabilities can finally obtain accurate, reliable information on accessibility, and provide that information to other users by reviewing their favorite (or least favorite) local businesses. A guide to accessible places and services, Lulu provides an open forum where people can share information on everything from menu readability to bathroom accessibility.As you can believe, I'm a very proud sister. When he first told me about it, I had one of those "Aha!" moments, wondering why someone hadn't thought of this before. My bro and Caitlin truly are pioneers in their communities and, very soon, in communities all over!
So far, San Francisco and Portland have been launched, and Boston and NYC are coming soon.
I have a favor to ask of all my lovely readers: write reviews! Whether you live in Portland or SF or have visited at some point, your feedback is welcomed. Just another way you can give back this holiday season!
Lots of LOVE,
Wow that's awesome! I remember seeing a link to their site a while ago from your facebook but didn't know that it was a site doing so much good for people! I will definitely keep my eyes open in all the cities I go to to see if they are accessible to disabled people so that I can contribute to the site when it expands! I always had to be on the look out in Korea because my grandpa couldn't walk that far. (If they ever want to go global... hehe)
