Dear all Alhassan Foundation’s friends, believers & supporters,
Awesome news dear donor! This is to inform you that you officially helped a wheelchair user be the first wheelchair presenter in Egypt.
During the past few months your contribution helped us to secure a sustainable training opportunity for wheelchair users whether kids or adults. After hard training and efforts from their side and their trainers’ side, they were able to participate in several contests and championships and many of them became professional athletes. They achieved several victories and gained more than 50 medals till now.
And about our artist participants, let us introduce you to one of our beneficiaries, she is 45 years old paraplegic lady. She started to participate in our activities and events using her talent in making jewelries as she gained confidence and felt that she is adding value. Through Alhassan Foundation, she was interviewed in one of the famous TV shows in Egypt to show her skills. Then she found out that she had a talent in presenting. After that she got an offer to present a Radio show, and now she is preparing to broadcast her first YouTube show as the first media presenter on wheelchair in Egypt.
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:
