Please allow us to introduce ourselves. We are an independent group of people who want to help people with a handicap and also want to save resources through recycling and upcycling.
Every year tens of thousands of wheelchairs, walkers, toilet chairs and crutches get disposed in Germany though they would find grateful people in need in Morocco.
Our goal is to collect these walking aids here in Germany and to transport them to Morocco and give them away to people in need for a smile.
Background
Walking Aids & Wheelchairs
Wheelchairs
In Morocco they often use flower pot coasters as wheelchairs. This is of course extremely uncomfortable and restrictive for handicapped people.
We collect and donate only mechanical wheelchairs therefore no electrical ones because of logistical, ecological and financial reasons.
Walkers
Walkers are needed more and more by an increasingly older society and have only been introduced recently.
Toilet Chairs
Toilet chairs are needed in private housholds and hospitals because the traditional toilets are not suitable for handicapped people.
Crutches
Crutches as a quick interim solution are also needed in Morocco and are easy to transport.
