For the first time, we joined in supporting people with disabilities in Kosovo as part of the Wheels for the World project by Joni and Friends.

Over several days, together with an international team of specialists and volunteers, we selected and customized wheelchairs, walkers, and crutches for children and adults. The remaining equipment was left with the local team for further targeted assistance.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to:
• Metta Redding Bauman — for the initiative and organizational support;
• volunteers from Australia, Albania, Kosovo, Mexico, the Netherlands, the United States, and Ukraine — for their professionalism and dedication;
• Serhii Shlapa, Stowarzyszenie Chrześcijańskich Rodzin Osób Niepełnosprawnych Schron, Henryk Kufeld, and Anna Zamkowska — for their help in delivering the equipment from Poland;
• Lendita Haxhitasim, and the team of the Agape Ukraine Rehabilitation Complex, in particular Ihor Hadzinskyi, Anna Leshchuk, and Viktoriia Havruk — for their professional support during the wheelchair fitting process.

We are glad to be part of an initiative that changes lives and opens new opportunities for people’s mobility and independence.
