Right at Home Canada - Free Wheel Chair Mission!
Right at Home Canada’ is hosting a fundraiser called ‘Free Wheelchair Mission’. This wonderful mission is a non-profit, faith-based organization, that builds and delivers sturdy wheelchairs for deserving people in developing countries with disabilities that have no means of mobility. Many times these people have to be carried or crawl to move. Since 2001, ‘Free Wheelchair Mission’ with the support of their community partners (such as ‘Right at Home Canada’), has collectively delivered over 1.3 million wheelchairs in 94 countries!! Here is short heartwarming video of a wheelchair donation.
This mission is very close to our hearts and as such we have been raising funds for this worthy cause. Additionally, we are hosting a carnival on Saturday September 14, 2024 from 2:00pm-6:00pm at 103 Inverness St in Caledonia. This will be a fun filled day for all! We may have hula hoop contests, an obstacle course, music, prizes, a bouncy castle and more. We will also serve barbequed food, such as hotdogs, popcorn, Tim Hortons coffee and snacks.
All proceeds from our carnival will be donated to this worthwhile organization, 'Free Wheelchair Mission'.
https://give.freewheelchairmission.org/fundraiser/5638123
Our goal in our team is to raise $3000! We are well on our way but would certainly appreciate any support you could provide for our small office in Caledonia. Additionally, it would be so appreciated if you could mention the Sept 14th carnival to your listeners to help spread the good word!
