Turn Information into knowledge

By Amany Tarek | Project Contributor

A Customer Service Representative

Dear Alhassan’s Donors,

We do highly thank you for your last donation. Your donation contributed to sustain our project “Info Hub” and maintaining our Odoo ERP system. The core of this project is collecting all information that’re relevant about our members in our database. We take this raw data from our beneficiaries, analyze it and turn that into knowledge.

We use this knowledge to:

Be able to tell what type of project they can benefit from or will fit them from our eight different projects.
Know where to allocate our resources, for example, know which places are in high need of accessible facilities and prioritize those.
Match beneficiaries with one of our partners that would help them develop the hobby or sport of their interest.

We also share our information with any entity willing to provide accessibility options to people with mobility issues

In the past three months, our customer service staff have added the information of 100 more wheelchair users while updating the information of 600 older members so we would always have an up-to-date database. They also take calls to answer any questions or inquiries our beneficiaries might have.

We encourage you to continue supporting us and staying loyal donor to our causes through subscribing to a monthly recurring donation option. That will help wheelchair users in Egypt be more independent and successful.

Database and Information Scale

By Maryam Mehanna | Project Contributor

Inclusion in Alhassan Team

Dear Alhassan’s Donors,

We do highly thank you for your last donation. You have supported in the change of people’s life. Your donation contributed to sustain our project “Info Hub”. The core of this project is collecting information and database for every tiny detail related to the physically challenged people in Egypt. This in order to capitalize on it to offer the services that our beneficiary needs to live an active life. Database is the first step for helping people with disabilities to know their medical cases, age, financial situation and social circumstances.

In April 2019, 55 new members have joined our foundation. The scale of the members is distributed as following 24 members in Cairo, 16 members in North Egypt and 15 members in Upper Egypt. Not all of the 55 members have certain potentials in joining our activities; this is due to the lack of information about activities for people with physical challenges. As our society marginalizes people with mobility and disability issues.

Info Hub project helps in gathering information and database for all details related to people with disabilities. By your donation, you helped in changing people’s life to be better. From the 55 members: 8 members have been able to be provided by “source of income project”, 22 members have been able to be provided by “customized wheelchairs”, 4 members have been able to join “sports” and 1 member has been provided by “an equipped ride”.

Dear Alhassan’s Donors,

We do highly thank you for your last donation. You have supported in the change of people’s life. Your donation contributed to sustain our project “Info Hub”. The core of this project is collecting information and database for every tiny detail related to the physically challenged people in Egypt, This in order to capitalize on it to offer the services that our beneficiary needs to live an active life. Database is the first step for helping people with disabilities to know their medical cases, age, financial situation and social circumstances.

At the beginning of this year 2019, 189 new members have joined our community. Our last gathering was in Luxor. It was a huge gathering! We met up with children, youth and old people whom are physically challenged. Through, this gathering, we gathered all needed information about them and fed our database for Info Hub.

Via Info Hub, we have been able to put the new members into the proper and needed projects. The children have been was assigned to benefit from service projects such as Customized Wheelchairs for kids and Social Awareness. The youth applied to projects like Source of income and Customized Wheelchairs’ projects. In this progress, we help the physically challenged people to live a decent life being totally independent socially and financially through providing them with a job or funding their business idea.

Lately, we won an honorary award of Zero Project Conference 2019 to acknowledge that we are sustainable in our mission and vision and we are always seeking for the betterment of life for physically challenged people through changing their disability into ability. This Award ceremony was held in the UN premises in Vienna which focused on Independent Living and Political Participation. This honorary award is not only for us, it is for you as well our donor. Congratulations for all of us. We encourage you to continue supporting us and staying loyal donor to our causes through subscribing to a monthly recurring donation option. That will help wheelchair users in Egypt be more independent and successful.
