Foundation donates wheelchairs to persons with disabilities in the Niger Delta
In a commendable effort to enhance mobility and independence for individuals with disabilities, the Isioma Humanitarian Foundation (ISHF) has recently distributed wheelchairs to over 20 recipients across various local government areas in Bayelsa State. This initiative has brought significant relief and renewed hope to beneficiaries who have long struggled with daily activities due to limited mobility.
The impact of this donation was particularly evident in the case of Ma Cecilia Fakimi, an elderly woman whose health had previously confined her to her home. Expressing her gratitude, Ma Fakimi described the wheelchair as life-changing, stating, “I can now go outside and feel the fresh air again.” This simple yet profound change has dramatically improved her quality of life, allowing her to enjoy the outdoors once more.
The foundation’s responsiveness and efficiency were highlighted by Ma Fakimi’s daughter, who had initially reached out to ISHF through social media. She shared her amazement at the swift action taken by the foundation, especially after previous unsuccessful attempts to secure assistance from other organizations. The prompt delivery of the wheelchair exceeded their expectations, underscoring the foundation’s commitment to addressing urgent needs.
This wheelchair donation drive extended across multiple communities, demonstrating ISHF’s dedication to supporting vulnerable populations throughout the Niger Delta region. By providing these essential mobility aids, the foundation has not only improved the daily lives of recipients but also fostered a greater sense of inclusion within their communities.
This initiative is part of a broader effort by the Isioma Humanitarian Foundation to support underserved individuals and families. Through various programs, the foundation continues to uplift those in need, offering a beacon of hope and creating lasting positive change. The impact of these efforts underscores the potential for collaborative actions to address pressing societal challenges and empower marginalized communities.
