Beasley Allen will present a Wii gaming system and Wii Fit game to Children's Hospital of Alabama in Birmingham on Thursday, Sept. 3, 2009, at 10:30 a.m. Patients will be on hand to try out the new Wii, and administrators, staff and physicians will be available for interviews.

The Nintendo Wii is much more than a game console for folks at the Alabama Special Camp for Children and Adults. The system, donated by Beasley Allen in Montgomery, could bring additional exercise and rehabilitation to ASCCA campers, who visit the Jackson's Gap facility.

“Project Wii-hab” is a coordinated effort of more than 40 law firms throughout the country to donate a Wii gaming system to a rehabilitative program in their area.

Beasley Allen law firm and dozens of other attorneys from across the country are banding together to help people with disabilities, as well as those recovering from injuries including strokes, broken bones, surgery and even combat injuries. By working together and donating dozens of Nintendo Wiis to local rehabilitation centers, hospitals, nursing homes and similar facilities, we hope to help thousands of people.

MONTGOMERY, ALA. (August 18, 2009) - Beasley Allen law firm and dozens of other attorneys from across the country are banding together to help people with disabilities, as well as those recovering from injuries including strokes, broken bones, surgery and even combat injuries. The Wii is becoming popular as a therapeutic tool. The game console's unique, motion-sensitive controller requires body movements similar to traditional therapy exercises, but engages the user in such a way that they actually enjoy the experience and can work longer.
