VISION
In wealthy countries, a disabled person can get a wheelchair, however, there are over 100,000,000 disabled adults and children for whom the dream of a wheelchair is worlds beyond their expectations. They live without this basic form of mobility by crawling through life or waiting for a loved one to carry them to fulfill the simplest of needs--the disabled and the family members are thereby restricted from a full life.
A small fractional percentage of these folks are served by charitable organizations which ship re-conditioned wheelchairs or conventional-design wheelchairs to poor countries - a very costly and inefficient process.
FWM's vision has been implemented by contracting with manufacturers in China. Please CLICK ABOVE and see a world map and statistics of deliveries. They've developed distribution partnerships with charitable organizations so that wheelchairs can be given free of charge.
vision: To deliver 20 million wheelchairs!
