Celebrating the Miracle of Mobility
July 22
You helped us reach our goal! A big THANK YOU to so many of you who supported the special 20th Anniversary edition of our Miracle of Mobility Live event.
Together, we were able to raise over $1.7 million to provide enough funds to send more than 21,250 wheelchairs to those living with disabilities in developing countries.
We are so blessed and honored by your support and are so excited for the individuals who will soon receive these new wheelchairs.
Thus far, we have also garnered more than 100,000 online views of the virtual program! In case you missed it or would like to watch it again, visit MiracleofMobility.org.
