Dear Alhassan Foundation’s friends, believers & supporters,
We must thank you all for your support, which enabled us to provide 112 customized wheelchairs in the past few months despite all the difficulties facing the world due to the economic fluctuations.
In Alhassan FDN we work day and night so that we can provide the physical and financial independence for all wheelchair users in Egypt.
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 at AlHassan Foundation always aim to be present to serve our members everywhere and in every governorate in Egypt.
Today I will tell you a wonderful story about overcoming challenges, Adel, a 25-year-old from Sharqia Governorate in Egypt, had both legs amputated as a result of train accident.
Adel joined Alhassan Foundation in 2021, took a customized wheelchair in 2022,
Despite his injury, he was able to complete Master’s at the Faculty of Disability Sciences, Al-Azhar University, in addition to that, he was able to practice weightlifting.
Adel was also able to win the National Weightlifting Championship and joined the Egypt National Team.
All of Alhassan Foundation are proud that Adel is a member of our family.
And because we strongly believe that the wheelchair is not the end, but rather a new beginning, we hope that this will be a better beginning for him.
We want to thank each and every donor or supporter who helps us to achieve this success and we urge you to continue supporting us in our cause, our hope, our dream. You can support us through subscribing to be a recurring donor which helps us secure more funds to help more wheelchairs users and their families.
