I used to
move about with the help of a stick but now movement has been made
easier by these wheelchairs.
The problems of moving to and from school have now ended, therefore
this will
remain a memorable day for most of us forever.
Much as we would like to thank our kind donors, we would also like
to ask them to assist other handicapped people especially those
whose handicap can easily be treated and be restored into physical
fitness.

A few years
ago I got paralysed and could no longer walk without leaning onto a
stick and even with that, I would easily fall.
This wheelchair has solved my movement problems as I can easily move
about now. However, people like us are many and more help is needed.

Ever since I
was born, I've just been staying at home due to my handicap.
Movements were totally restricted and since my family is poor
nothing could be done about that.
I longed for school but in vain. Now I am thinking of starting
school, I look forward towards attending Church and even visiting
all the people who used to visit me at home.

I was born
well but became physically handicapped by a struck of polio which
ended my movements. From then, walking was merely dragging myself
with support of sticks.
Being a local tailor, this wheelchair will now make my profession
less taxing, I am very happy about that.
One call to parents though: "Handicapped children are also human,
deserving love, respect and care!"
