Walkabout in Uganda

Travel to Uganda with us today by watching the film above – a visual journey that shows the impact of our work in the region.

As we reflect on our journey, we are thrilled to share the remarkable progress of our projects. Since our first distribution in Uganda in 2014, we have delivered over 3,300 wheelchairs and trikes throughout the country, making a tangible difference in the lives of thousands of people with mobility disabilities.

In 2022, we reached significant milestones through two key projects: the Monitoring & Evaluation Project (M&E) and the Repairs Project. The M&E Project aimed to identify any service gaps, assess the need for improvements, and ensure that our wheelchairs created meaningful changes in the lives of our beneficiaries.

With the insights that we gained from the M&E Project, we launched our first-ever Repairs Project. This project aimed to extend the lifespan of our wheelchairs by addressing the identified issues and making necessary improvements in order to ensure a cost-efficient and sustainable provision of wheelchairs and tricycles.

As we celebrate our achievements, we extend our deepest gratitude for your ongoing support. Together, we are restoring dignity, freedom, and independence to thousands of individuals around the world. To support our work and be a part of this life-changing journey, donate today by clicking below.

Walkabout in Ukraine: Artem’s Story

In February 2022, Vladimir Putin launched a military invasion of Ukraine. A devastating humanitarian crisis continues to unfold in the country.

In May 2022, we launched the #Walkabout4Ukraine campaign to send 100 wheelchairs to people with mobility disabilities in Ukraine. Thanks to the support of our community and a generous donor, we were able to send an emergency container to Lviv together with our partner, Momentum Wheels for Humanity, and play a pivotal role in helping a country in need.

Meet Artem, one of our wheelchair beneficiaries. Watch the video below to hear his story.
