How collaboration turned awareness into impact
TL;DR
The Young Professionals of the St. George Area Chamber of Commerce presented Hearsee Mobility with funds raised through our Blueprint for Access community fundraiser. The luncheon wasn’t just a check presentation—it was a celebration of partnership, purpose, and the shared belief that accessibility should be built into every environment, not added later.
What’s happening (and why it matters)
