As part of E HANDS Wheelchairs Mission, we have provided 143 wheelchairs to people with different abilities all across Pakistan. People with different abilities from underprivileged backgrounds are the main beneficiaries.

Delivery of a wheelchair to a person without mobility improves the life of the entire family. In gaining mobility, people with disabilities are given an opportunity to integrate into society by attending school, going to work, shopping and becoming a part of the community.
