This is what Mukasa told us when receiving his brand-new wheelchair. The last part brought us to tears:![]()
"I can’t work anymore. I can’t even go anywhere. I just sit from morning to night. I heard about the free wheelchairs being given on my little radio and I had to try and come here fast. ![]()
"These sticks are poking holes in my hands. I have been suffering. With the wheelchair I will be able to go and buy something to eat and help myself. ![]()
"I don’t know how, but God should bless you because He knew that I needed this. Thank you. May God bless you! I was in bad condition, and I begged God to help me. ![]()
"I was just stuck at home and now I am happy. God bless you! I have nothing to give but I pray God repays you.”![]()
We give many thanks for supporters like you, who make moments like this happen for people like Mukasa.![]()
