"Transforming lives through the gift of mobility"

Living in Wheeling, I have observed  The Free Wheelchair Mission take roots, gain visibility and help to share the gift of mobility. One day last week, the idea popped into my head of dropping an email to the FWM, and  offer my upcoming bicycle trip as a fundraising exercise. I thought, wow, peoples lives are changed by the simple gift of a wheelchair. I could understand that, I thought since my life is tremendously expanded by bicycle travel. I really had no idea how much physically disabled poor people in developing countries lives are transformed by a $52  wheelchair   .Please go to their website,

http://www.freewheelchairmission.org/ read and learn, and particularly view the pictures. As I told Ashley Herron the events manager for FWM, On their faces I see the way I feel ,when I am rolling along unencumbered and exposed to new people and places. That feeling of Independence, mobility, and freedom should be had by all of God's children.  Go to my donation page linked to this blog and make my 2000 mile bike ride count towards giving that mobility to someone who lives without any mobility! No person,anywhere on earth should be crawling in the dirt when YOU & I can put them in a wheelchair at such a small financial cost. I assure you, the reward will truly be all yours !!  CLICK,DONATE,& BE REWARDED!
