Nonprofits and Charities That Provide Wheelchairs to Developing Countries.
Most developing countries do not manufacturer their own wheelchairs. As a result, many people depend upon wheelchairs which are imported. The organizations listed below are only able to provide a small fraction of the wheelchairs needed. Due to economic and design limitations, the donated wheelchairs are typically hospital style, which while better than nothing, provide a low level of independent mobility.
