Boycott the Ships Of The Sea Museum in Savannah, Georgia

I’m an advocate for people with various abilities and I want to help promote equal access and opportunities for everyone.

Ships Of The Sea Museum in Savannah, Georgia refused to admit an 11-year-old girl in a wheelchair. I think she is deserving of the same opportunity to visit this museum.

Please consider doing the following:

1.)  Boycott this museum until they can make it accessible for people.

2.)  Add Lexi (11-year-old) on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lexi/100673499141

3.)  Write an email or letter to express your concerns on the behalf of Lexi and others: 41 M.L. King Boulevard, Savannah, Georgia 31401. (912) 232-1511 or email: contact@shipsofthesea.org
