How does UCP Wheels for Humanity find the recipients of the wheelchairs?
UCP Wheels for Humanity partners with various organizations throughout the world in order to find the recipients of our wheelchairs. Our local partners in developing countries are typically rehabilitation hospitals, clinics, schools or orphanages for children with disabilities, advocacy groups, private foundations, Rotary Clubs, Lions Clubs, and other groups that have access to people with disabilities in their communities. By working with local groups we are able to locate the people in the greatest need of wheelchairs and ensure that they receive the correct wheelchair for their disability.
