Happy 5th Birthday to the Wheelchair Foundation!

The Wheelchair Foundation has just turned 5-years-old today and is the world leader in delivering mobility into the lives of physically disabled citizens in 135 countries.  The brain child of founder Kenneth E. Behring, the Wheelchair Foundation has delivered more than 370,000 wheelchairs, and changed the lives of an estimated 10 people with each wheelchair delivered.  Children can now go to school, adults can go to work and provide for their families, and the elderly can get out of a bed that they may have been in for up to 20 years and rejoin society. 

Thanks to our network of global partners and supporters that make our mission possible, we are able to immediately improve the lives of thousands of people every month around the world.  Thank you for joining us in our mission to help people realize their dreams and abilities and live a more independent and dignified life.  Together, we are changing the world one wheelchair at a time.
