Our Mission

To raise the poor (with disabilities) from the dust and give them a place of physical dignity,
spiritual restoration and capability in Christ. —Psalm 113:7&8 | Phillippians 4:13 | Titus 3:4&5

Our vision

To establish centers for wheelchair repairs in developing nations as places of ongoing ministry to the disabled. We desire to train up persons with disabilities to repair and distribute the wheelchairs with help from local churches and charities. We are currently establishing such centers in Honduras and Bolivia, and partnering with established centers in Thailand.

Our strategy

  1. Collect used and discarded durable medical equipment; wheelchairs, walkers, bedside commodes, canes, etc. Wheelchair donations are vital to our mission and are encouraged. See our "donate" page for more information.
  2. Refurbish or recycle the medical equipment we receive.
  3. Distribute the refurbished wheelchairs and mobility equipment to the needy by collaborating with established agencies or NGOs who share a similar statement of faith and equipping vision for the country, and who will assess each person’s needs. Along with the equipment and wheelchair distribution, we or the in-country agency also provide home health care instruction and Christian ministry.
  4. Establish continuing ministry within the country through partnering agencies,
  5. or form an overseas chapter to set up a repair shop for mobility equipment and wheelchair reconditioning and repairs, preferably run by persons with disabilities. Help the local churches within the country grow in their outreach and ministry to the disabled.
  6. Educate Americans in churches and civic groups about the physical and spiritual condition of the disabled in developing nations throughout the world, even as we seek wheelchair donations and other durable medical equipment for those in need.
  7. Maintain accountability through local churches and membership with TECH (Technical Exchange for Christian Healthcare)
