Imagine, for a moment, what it would be like to live without comfortable housing, access to medical care or even enough food. Now picture having to live through those circumstances without the ability to move around on your own.
Unfortunately, this is the day-to-day reality of more than 70 million people worldwide. Without mobility, many of these individuals are confined to their homes, forced to crawl or be carried, which hinders their access to education, healthcare, employment and other essential services.
We at Inspiration Travel Foundation are honored to partner with Free Wheelchair Mission to help those in need, and we invite you to partner with us. Together, we can change lives! For just $96 a chair, we can give these wheelchairs to individuals with disabilities in under-resourced nations.
Mobility Equals Empowerment
A new wheelchair provides more than just mobility. It allows recipients to live up to their full potential, opening new opportunities to attend school, earn a living, and connect with community members. Mobility can transform a life. Wheelchairs empower people with disabilities to move around independently, engage with their communities and participate in social and economic activities.
Since its inception in 2001, Free Wheelchair Mission has created and shipped over 1.3 million wheelchairs to 94 different countries, free of charge. Below is the story of how Free Wheelchair Mission is changing the world.
Free Wheelchair Mission does more than just provide wheelchairs. Their Medical & Mobility Emergency Fund provides essential medical resources to the communities they serve worldwide, including masks, gloves, needles, syringes, blankets and mobility aids (walkers, canes, and orthopedic). Select hospitals also receive medical supplies for surgeries and operations that frequently eliminate the need for a wheelchair and improve the client’s quality of life.
