Wheelchairs don’t just provide mobility. They provide lifelong empowerment through access to education, better health outcomes and increased social connections—all those basic building blocks of a life that we take for granted. At Wheelchairs For Kids Australia, we’re proud to have given the life-changing gift of mobility to 60,000 children in over 80 countries, granting the world’s most vulnerable children a renewed sense of dignity, hope and independence.

Growth Development Fund
We’ve developed a plan to ensure we can continue transforming the lives of children Internationally, with an agile and sustainable organisation. This requires premises and manufacturing faculties, high quality equipment, research and development and human resources.
Wheelchair Fund
Globally, there are an estimated 10 million children who are in dire need of a wheelchair but can’t access one due to economic factors or underdeveloped medical services in their country of origin. As a donor to our Wheelchair Fund, you can be a part of the solution.
