Dear Alhassan Foundation’s friends, believers & supporters,
Thank you for donating to our project! Your support changes the lives of people with mobility issues in Egypt for the better. We delivered three equipped rides in the past three months and they greatly facilitated how wheelers live their everyday life.
Through this project, we offer a private alternative to inaccessible public transportation and costly private transportation by providing tricycles to people who passes all official eligibility criteria. This tricycle can be drove by hand and has a place in the back in which wheelchair users can put their chair, secure it and move anywhere with it.
Also, as one of our efforts to help wheelers in Egypt navigate its streets, we have been working with a software company on making an android and iOS app that has:
1- A guide of accessibility for the 3 subway lines that has the data we collected about each line.
2- A guide of the public places around Egypt and the available accessibility means in each.
3- Rise Up videos: Videos that teach wheelers the activities of daily living.
After we officially launch our accessibility app on the stores we will share the links with you so you can download it and share with us your feedback.
We would like to thank each and every one of you for your support. We urge you to continue supporting our cause and stay our enthusiastic donor through subscribing to a monthly recurring donation which will help securing more funds to help wheelchair users in Egypt be physically independent.
