The Power to Walk

By Fredrick Ouko | Executive Director

It is possible to forget how important our small acts of kindness means to people who experience difficulties with mobility. A group that is struggling to accept their situation brought about by either an accident or a disease that made them loose the ability to walk without any support.

This is the reason we write to thank you for bringing happiness and restoring dignity in the lives of young people with disabilities in Kenya through your donations, some of which we buy walking aids such as elbow crutches,wheelchairs,white cane amongst other assistive devices.

A mobility aid is one of the essential enabler to any person who has a disability and looks forth to lead an independent life, to be able to determine where they want to go, what they can do on their own without relying on anyone for support.

Through your support, we continue to avail this much-needed enabler to facilitate movement by persons with disabilities in society without becoming a bother to other members in the family, the cost can be beyond reach for many and this forms the reason why the mobility aids are distributed free of charge when you donate them.

We thank you and do request for your continued partnership in giving power to walk to every person with a disability who deserves it.
