​While in Uganda in 2005 I saw people who had survived the disease of polio. Often they are rejected in their communities. I'm a polio survivor myself. Back in the United States, I realized that many people have a lightly-used and no-longer-needed mobility device from a twisted ankle, ski accident, or operation. I saw crutches at garage sales, in dumpsters, and unfortunately in roll-off containers headed to landfills. I knew that I had to do something; this was the genesis of Crutches 4 Africa.

"We are so grateful for the help you have given to us. Even just a thank you word is not enough. Because you have given us the hope that we had lost. It’s like bringing us back to life. Thank you so much." Mathew, from Kanguay Disability in Africa
HOW TO WRAP CRUTCHES FOR SHIPPING
THREE~LAN~THRO~PY  (noun)
Our goal is to raise THREE MILLION (USD) to ship and distribute
one million mobility devices, free to disabled people in need.
Each mobility device costs $3.00 USD to ship to the recipient.
WE WILL NOT SPEND THIS $3,000,000 TO ACCOMPLISH OUR GOAL!
Rather, we will safely invest the $3,000,000
and USE THE INTEREST to make it happen.
Your donation NEVER GOES AWAY!!!
Your donation will continue to provide mobility repeatedly!
You will ALWAYS  be part of a MILLION DOLLAR bank account!
The need is MASSIVE!
Be part of a MIRACLE!  DONATE NOW!  Become a THREE~LAN~THRO~PIST (verb)!!
WE NOW HAVE THE CAPACITY TO ACCEPT LEGACY AND APPRECIATED STOCK DONATIONS
