Why Wheelchairs?Without mobility, a person is reliant on others to provide even the most basic care. This reliance creates and perpetuates a cycle of poverty, disempowerment, and misperception about the roles of children and adults with disabilities in society.• It is widely estimated that more than ONE BILLION people currently experience disability. That is 1 in 7 people globally.• 70 MILLION people need a wheelchair – but only 5-15% of people have ACCESS to one.Each wheelchair Global Mobility provides changes the life of a child or adult with a disability, as well as the lives of their family and even their community. The change is immediate and dramatic.Learn how you can help us open the doors to independence, education, and self-empowerment for children and adults with disabilities!
