Wheelchair Program

As if being robbed of the ability to use their legs is not bad enough, many young Balinese are too poor to buy a wheelchair to give them some mobility. Without mobility, these patients are virtually without opportunity as well. Even going to school is denied them. Ngh is 14 years old and has never been to school. This donated wheelchair has given him a chance of mobility and new opportunity.

This young girl suffered a high fever when she was small, which caused brain damage. The wheelchair, donated from the Hollywood Hospital in Perth, will be a huge bonus to her and her parents, especially as she gets older.

Wheelchairs donated from Australia to the Foundation are distributed to patients in need and the Foundation works in conjunction with the Bali Department of Social Welfare and BK3S Province of Bali to identify those requiring this assistance.
