Project Report | Aug 19, 2019
Customized wheelchair for 23 children in Newcastle

By Lucinda Kerschensteiner | Director

We are thrilled to share that our project in Newcastle, South Africa is kicking off. Thanks to a Rotary International Global Grant, Uhambo is serving children with disabilities in this community with customized wheelchairs, while also providing training to their family and caregivers including workers at the local medical clinics. The attached article captures perfectly the challenges that children with disabilities face and the support that Uhambo provides.

We have many other communities like this that are looking for this level of assistance so their children will have better services. Thanks to donors like you, we can continue to deliver such necessary programs.
