Dear Alhassan Foundation’s friends, believers & supporters,

 

We must thank you all for your support, which enabled us to provide 112 customized wheelchairs in the past few months despite all the difficulties facing the world due to the inflation.

In Alhassan FDN we work day and night so that we can provide the physical and financial independence for all wheelchair users in Egypt.

These customized wheelchairs are tailor-made for each case based on his/her weight, height, health condition and needs. It’s made with medically approved materials, and components. It’s also provided with cushions to resist pressure sores & any possible skin irritations. Using customized wheelchairs made wheelers’ daily lives so much easier; consequently, that boosted their self-esteem and physical independence.

We at AlHassan Foundation always aim to be present to serve our members everywhere and in every governorate in Egypt.

This model shows that the wheelchair is the beginning, not the end.

Hoda is a 37-year-old divorced mother of four children from Cairo Governorate, As a result of a fall accident, she became paralyzed since 2012, causing her to lose any movement in the lower part of her body.

She joined Alhassan FDN two years ago and was provided with a custom-made wheelchair.

Despite her severe injury, she began playing badminton and also worked to support her four children.

 

And because we strongly believe that the wheelchair is not the end, but rather a new beginning, we hope that this will be a better beginning for her.

 

We want to thank each and every donor or supporter who helps us to achieve this success and we urge you to continue supporting us in our cause, our hope, our dream. You can support us through subscribing to be a recurring donor which helps us secure more funds to help more wheelchairs users and their families.
