Wheelchair for Handicapped persons Living at Slums
Story
This project will help the handicapped persons who are living in slums in Trivandrum district, Kerala state. These persons are physically challenged and face poverty and other financial issues. So we are planning to provide wheelchairs and tricycles for these people to do their daily wants and needs. And they can earn income through doing jobs like lottery ticket selling or other small-scale jobs. It will help them to improve their standard of living and stand independently. Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
Impact
In time, the wheelchairs and tricycles provided will help the person have a stable income and this in turn would have a positive impact on the economic condition of the whole family, thereby giving an opportunity for them to become the breadwinner. This would help them be self sufficient and do the daily activities like brushing, eating, mobility, etc, without help. We can also extend this help to other poor handicapped people living at different places and slums in the Trivandrum district.
Challenge
At Trivandrum Dist. lot of handicapped persons suffering from financial issues and lack of decent living conditions. One of the major problems is unemployment and poverty. So most of these people want to go to jobs but they do not have the circumstance.
