The Wheelchair Foundation distributes wheelchairs through an established network of non-governmental or other organizations that are certified to import humanitarian aid duty free, and take full responsibility for the importation, transportation, and proper distribution of the wheelchairs, and then return photographs to us of each wheelchair recipient, using the numbered placards and single use cameras that we supply. The photographs are then used to create the presentation folders that are sent to Wheelchair Foundation donors.

If all of the criteria listed above are met by an organization in a specific country, then the country is considered by the Wheelchair Foundation to be one with an established and successful distribution relationship. Absolutely no political, ethnic or religious affiliations are considered when evaluating any region of the world for the distribution of wheelchairs.

Since the establishment of the Wheelchair Foundation on June 13, 2000, we have continually worked to develop successful distribution relationships in as many countries as possible. During this learning process, we have been forced to remove some countries from the list, but continue to work for new or better relationships that will allow us to serve more parts of the world under our established program.

The Wheelchair Foundation enjoys established and successful distribution relationships in the countries listed below. This list will be constantly modified as we work to expand our distribution network. In some cases, countries may be removed from the list due to distribution difficulties. Please confirm distribution ability with Chris Lewis, Director of Public Information and Development at the Wheelchair Foundation by email ?
