We are excited to share an important milestone in our wheelchair support project. Through the generous donations received so far, totaling $251, we have successfully provided a wheelchair to one school-going child living with a disability in a rural community.
Before receiving the wheelchair, the child faced significant challenges traveling to school and participating in daily activities. A professional assessment was conducted to determine the most suitable wheelchair, ensuring proper fit, comfort, and long-term support. The wheelchair was then delivered directly to the child, providing immediate improvements in mobility and independence.
The child's caregivers also received guidance on safe wheelchair use and basic maintenance to ensure the equipment remains in good condition. Since receiving the wheelchair, the child has been able to move more freely and attend school with greater confidence.
This achievement represents the first step toward our goal of supporting 100 children with disabilities. We are deeply grateful to our donors whose contributions made this life-changing support possible. As fundraising continues, we look forward to reaching more children and helping them access education and opportunities that were previously out of reach.
