Donate Wheel Chairs for Disabled Persons in Sindh

In rural areas of Sindh, persons with disabilities face extreme challenges in mobility due to poverty, lack of rehabilitation services, and non-availability of assistive devices, especially wheelchairs. For many families, purchasing a wheelchair is financially impossible, and free assistive devices are extremely rare in remote and underserved communities.

As a result, children and adults with disabilities remain confined to their homes, unable to attend school, access healthcare, or participate in community life. Through GlobalGiving’s generous crowdfunding support, NDF Pakistan launched this project to provide wheelchairs free of cost to the most vulnerable persons with disabilities.

Activities Implemented During Reporting Period

During the reporting period, NDF Pakistan implemented the following activities:

• Identification and assessment of persons with mobility impairments

• Prioritization of beneficiaries from low-income rural households

• Procurement of quality wheelchairs suitable for rural environments

• Distribution of wheelchairs free of cost

• Basic orientation provided to beneficiaries and caregivers on safe use and maintenance

Progress & Achievements

• 300 wheelchairs & 200 tricycles distributed

• 500 persons with disabilities directly benefited

• Improved mobility and independence for beneficiaries

• Reduced dependency on caregivers for daily movement

• Increased participation in family and community activities

Progress Report

Project Title: Donate Wheelchairs for Disabled Persons in Sindh
Update Title: Fundraising for Mobility Support Through Wheelchairs

Organization: National Disability & Development Forum (NDF) Pakistan

Dear Supporters,

We are pleased to update you on our project “Donate Wheelchairs for Disabled Persons in Sindh.”

NDF Pakistan continues to work toward ensuring mobility and independence for persons with disabilities. Wheelchairs are a lifeline — they allow children and adults to attend school, access health services, and participate in community life with dignity.

During this period, NDF has distributed 30 wheel chairs and actively raising funds to support wheelchair distribution in Sindh and across Pakistan. With your contributions, we will be able to reach those in need and provide them with the gift of mobility.

Looking Ahead

As funds become available, NDF will organize wheelchair distribution drives to directly benefit persons with disabilities. Each wheelchair provided means freedom, inclusion, and opportunity for a better future.

Thank You

We are deeply grateful for your generosity and encouragement. Together, we can remove barriers and ensure that persons with disabilities in Pakistan are not left behind.

With gratitude,
Abid Lashari
President, NDF Pakistan
