WHAT A GREAT YEAR FOR ALL OF US!

By Lamise ElBetar | Project Leader

YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN

Dear Alhassan Foundation’s friends, believers & supporters,

Thank you for a great year! With the generosity of your donation, we were able to take huge steps in empowering many wheelchair users in Egypt and support their physical independence which leads to their financial independence.

With your donations, we were able to provide 111 wheelchairs for women and 196 wheelchairs for men with physical challenges. These wheelers are residing across the 27 governorates of Egypt. 114 of these wheelchairs were for supporting wheelers in underprivileged coastal governorates and 10 more wheelchairs were to support wheelers in Canal cities. Also, our beneficiaries in the most underserved governorates in upper Egypt acquired the biggest share of your donations this year with 111 customized wheelchairs and surely Cairo wheelchair users residents received 72 wheelchairs. So 2019 was a great year for all of us and we are hoping that 2020 will be even greater.

These customized wheelchairs are tailor-made for each case based on his/her weight, height, health condition and needs. It’s made with medically approved materials, and components. It’s also provided with cushions to resist pressure sores & any possible skin irritations. Using customized wheelchairs made wheelers’ daily lives so much easier; consequently, that boosted their self-esteem and physical independence.

We would like to thank each and every one of you for your support. We urge you to continue supporting our cause and stay loyal donors to our cause by subscribing to a monthly recurring donation option. That will help wheelchair users in Egypt be more confident and accomplished. Please visit our Facebook page to read other success stories:
