Wheelchair shipment

Amazing news! With the leadership of Josh Smith from Invigorate and Karen Rispin at AT Catalyst and iDEAS, two large shipments of wheelchairs have been donated and shipped to Kenya! Over 600 wheelchairs are in those shipments and should be arriving soon! Both the Clasp wheelchair and the Beeline wheelchair (pictured below) are included in these shipments and will bless so many individuals over in Kenya!

What happens after the wheelchairs get delivered to Kenya/East Africa? Each chair is customized for the child by the Assistive Technology Team at Bethany Kids (OTs, PTs, Wheelchair techs). The team travels near and far to communities to set up the wheelchairs, provide training, and follow up. The families pay $45 for this service if they can. Wings Aloft aims to help 60 kids be properly fitted with their brand-new wheelchairs. You can join us in this goal.

We have 16 travelers going to Kenya in May to help with this process! Please join us in praying for each of the travelers and the group at Bethany Kids that is hosting us. We are excited to be in the beautiful country with our friends again!
