Apart from making a personal donation, how can I help further?

Obviously each donation of whatever amount is valued beyond measure as it demonstrates that the donor is a caring and compassionate person. Please feel free to go ahead with local fund raising activities.

How can I help people learn more about WHEELCHAIRS FOR THE WORLD?

Mainly by talking enthusiastically about the appeal and give our web address to those you personally know at home and work. Also you can download our Appeal in PDF format and print it out. Each person has their own circle of influence and personal recommendation is by far the best way to get people to act. If they do not have internet access you can receive the gift and pass it on for them via our donation page.

Are there any paid members of Staff?

We currently have no paid members of staff. Everyone is a volunteer.

I am a Disabled person in a developing country in need of a wheelchair. How can I apply for one?

Find a qualified person to complete the application form and send it with a current photo to me.
