We donated wheelchairs to individuals with disabilities in Kakuma Refugee Camp to improve their mobility, independence and daily comfort. We had the opportunity to meet school children, a father and other individuals who were in need of assistive devices.
Baba is one of the individuals that we had the opportunity meet and also assist with a wheelchair. He takes training at a centre called Don Bosco, which is about an hour away from his home. Before getting the wheelchair, he used to struggle a lot when we he needs to go for his classes but now that he has gotten a wheelchair, he can be able to comfortably attend his classes without any struggle.
Prosper is a strong father that we also had the opportunity to meet. As the sole giver to his family, he has to wake up everyday, go to works and back home. And with his disability, and no assistive device, he had to go through a lot of challenges but he still managed to push through each day. With the wheelchair that we gave him, he can be able to perform his daily activities, work and move round without having any trouble.
These wheelchairs are more than just mobility support, they mean inclusivity and independence. These individuals are now able to work, go to school, and perform other activities without being left out.
We remain dedicated to creating a meaningful impact through acts of compassion and support.
