Dear all Alhassan Foundation’s friends, believers & supporters,

We are proud to announce that Kids on wheels was a lucky project since launched few months ago. You our precious donors supported it since the 1st day it was posted and we regularly get donations due to you believing in young kids on wheels. We want to share with you some of this amazing project’s accomplishments!

During the past few years we were trying as much as we can to provide best options for our kids on wheels. We always encourage and support these gifted kids to be strong, persistent, and confident. One of our kids on wheels is practicing professionally now beatboxing and playing on flutes. This kid used to be neglected at school due to staying in class all the time as his school wasn’t accessible so he couldn’t go out and socialize with the other kids. Alhassan foundation give him an opportunity to be hosted at one of the famous TV shows in Egypt and he were able to convey his voice to the government, which made his school principal submit to his needs and accommodate him in a ground floor class so he is now able to socialize with other kids and participate actively in activities. He is benefitting from other FDN projects as well through participating in sports and arts activities.

As a foundation we host quarterly social gatherings for our new members and we emphasize on hosting our kids on wheels with their parents so they can exchange knowledge with other parents and their kids can see other kids from our members and how they are sociable, confident, and living their life normally.  

Not only that, we also provide efficient light-weighted wheelchairs tailored especially for kids. We enhanced the process of supporting these kids with these active wheelchairs and made it more sustainable and efficient through taking old wheelchairs from kids after they grow up, replace it with bigger ones, and give the smaller ones to younger kids as a “pay forward initiative”. We hope that you continue your support for our kids so we can keep up with developing our good cause.

We would like to thank each and every one of you for your support. We urge you to continue supporting our cause and stay loyal donors to our cause through subscribing to a monthly recurring donation option. That will help wheelchair users in Egypt be more confident and accomplished. Please visit our Facebook page to read other success stories:
