Donor Testimonials

“I saw how wheelchair recipients found light, freedom, and joy, to know that as human beings, they matter and are loved.”

~ Kathy from California

“To the able-bodied observer, my wheelchair may represent adversity, their eyes perceiving only loss. but my wheelchair does not imprison me; it empowers me. For this reason, I choose to support Free Wheelchair Mission and their work to give the gift of mobility to those in need. Everyone deserves to enjoy such freedom.”

~ Ashley from Indiana

“They’ve looked up at people their whole lives,” said Don Schoendorfer, our founder, whose latest interview is in The Saturday Evening Post.“When you get them into a [wheel]chair, they often break out in happy tears. And they look different than when they were on the ground... You give them a hug and they don’t want to let go because they’re crying. And you look around and the whole family is crying.”Read the full feature at www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2024/12/wheels-of-good-fortune/ ... See MoreSee Less
