Event Details

Wheelchairs 4 Kids provides wheelchairs, home and vehicle modifications as well as other assistive and therapeutic devices to children with physical disabilities at no charge to the families. Many children in the United States faced with living with physical disabilities are in wheelchairs that are too small, in disrepair, or do not fit the needs of the child. Children outgrow their wheelchairs before government or insurance programs will allow for a replacement - on average 5 years! Not only is it unsafe for a child to be in a chair that is inadequate for their needs, but it can impact their health in numerous ways including scoliosis, respiratory problems and pressure sores.
In addition, families are faced with trying to care for their special needs children in homes that have not been modified to meet their specific circumstances. Imagine trying to lift your teenager in and out of bed or a bathtub without assistive devices or a modified bathroom. Picture a child in a home where they can't get upstairs. Wheelchairs 4 Kids is prepared to address this much neglected need. But we can't do it without you. Wheelchairs 4 Kids is meeting the needs of physically disabled children and their families. (501(c)(3) organization). The Longhorn Detachment 1069 has raised over $18,000. for Wheelchairs 4 Kids and we now have 25 children in Texas who are being supported by your donations.
