Equip a Clinic & Provide Free Wheelchairs       Chile/Haiti/Peru

  

When you give the sick medicine you give healing. When you give a disabled person a wheelchair, you
give them mobility and independence!

In developing nations like Haiti, Peru, and Chile, an estimated 100 million people need a wheelchair, yet cannot afford one. In addition to suffering from the physical pain and social alienation caused by a disability, many must endure further burdens of crawling on the ground or being carried by loved ones. Furthermore, the devastating 2010 Haiti earthquake left almost 1,000,000 people without basic healthcare. HAITI HEALTHCARE PARTNERS has a volunteer-run clinic providing primary care to over 6,000 people each year. The clinic provides vaccinations to children, pre- and post-natal care to expectant mothers and their babies, and enables doctors to make house calls to patients too ill to travel. THE FREE WHEELCHAIR MISSION provides wheelchairs for the disabled poor in Haiti, Chile, and Peru. As recipients are literally lifted off the ground, they experience renewed purpose, independence and dignity.

$66 - 1 wheelchair
$43 - 1-day medicine and vaccine supply for a clinic
