A mission of Hope, Mobility and Freedom will depart from the San Francisco Bay Area on January 13th. Ken Behring and the Wheelchair Foundation team will be joined by representatives from LDS Charities to meet the First Ladies of Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay and Costa Rica, and deliver the first of 480 wheelchairs to each country co-sponsored by LDS Charities.
“I am just touched to the core of my soul to be able to participate in the distribution of wheelchairs,” said Garry Flake, Director of Humanitarian Services for LDS Charities.
As a valued partner in our mission of changing the lives of disabled children, teens and adults worldwide, LDS Charities has stepped forward and offered a new life to thousands of people and their families, by joining the global Wheelchair Foundation effort.
The Wheelchair Foundation wishes to thank LDS Charities for their generosity, and commitment to the disabled worldwide.
Over 100 million people in the world are in need of a wheelchair but cannot afford one. For only $75.00, a wheelchair can change the life of a person and their entire family. What is mobility worth to you? Please donate online, or call toll free (877) 378-3839.
Thank you.
