EMPOWERING INDEPENDENCE IN MONTANA COMMUNITIES

Big Sky Independent Living Solutions (BSILS) accepts donated mobility, accessibility, and daily-living equipment — wheelchairs, walkers, ramps, shower chairs, hospital beds, and similar items — and makes it available at no cost to people who need it. The program operates on a simple premise: improve mobility and quality of life through a medical equipment loan program and therapy services.

Who We Serve

Any Montana resident with a mobility, accessibility, or daily-living need that could be addressed by donated equipment. There are no income requirements, no insurance verification, and no eligibility paperwork. The program currently focuses on Billings and Helena and surrounding communities, with flexibility to serve other parts of Montana as capacity allows.

Where the Program

Stands Today

BSILS is a program in development. It is not yet incorporated as a nonprofit organization and does not yet have 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, so equipment donations are not currently tax-deductible. The program is operated by its founder, an occupational therapist licensed in Montana, with informal volunteer support. We are working to establish formal nonprofit structure during the coming year. In the meantime, the program continues to accept donations and connect equipment with people who need it.

How You Can Help, or How We Can Help You

If you have equipment to donate, get in touch and we'll arrange pickup or drop-off. If you or someone you know needs equipment, get in touch and we'll see what we have available. If you'd like to know more about the program — for partnership, funding, or volunteering — get in touch and we'll send you our program materials.
