John Kicos, the creator of Wheel-A-John, a self-contained system for bladder relief for those in wheelchairs, has launched an IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds for the production of this unique product.
Charlotte, NC -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/23/2015 -- The Wheel-A-John is a revolutionary, self-contained system that offers waterless, hands-free external relief for those in manual wheelchairs. Located on the web at http://wheelajohn.com/, the Wheel-A-John eliminates the need for wet diapers, cuts down on urinary tract infections and offers wheelchair occupants of any age a safe, private and dignified way to relieve their bladders without drawing attention to themselves. Now, creator John Kicos has lauched an IndieGoGo campaign at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/to-decrease-urinary-tract-infections-for-seniors to raise funds to produce and distribute the Wheel-A-John to all who need it.
"The Wheel-A-John addresses an issue that many people might prefer to ignore," says Kicos. "However, our elderly, particularly our veterans, deserve more. The Wheel-A-John maintains privacy and dignity while helping wheelchair occupants avoid problems like wet diapers, urinary tract infections and embarrassing accidents."
The Wheel-A-John consists of a comfortable seat cushion with a built-in relief and collection system to answer "calls of nature." Discretely packaged and undetectable to others, this product provides a clean and easy way to take care of the body's needs without drawing attention to the wheelchair occupant.
The IndieGoGo campaign offers several pledge and reward levels, including: $10 for social media recognition; $25 for social media recognition and a Towel Trap beach chair pillow; $100 for recognition and two Towel Trap beach chair pillows; $500 for a certificate of thanks and four Towel Trap beach chair pillows; and $1,000 for recognition and eight Towel Trap beach chair pillows. Donors of $10,000 or more will receive four tickets to the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Coca Cola 600 race in May 2015 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
