NC WHEELCHAIR PROGRAM
What is the American Wheelchair Mission? The American Wheelchair Mission is an
or-ganization within the Knights of Columbus that provides mobility to those
who have who have lost the ability to walk because of natural disasters, illness,
accident or just old age and have lost the ability to walk.
By using council fund raising, private or individual donation and involving sponsoring
churches the Knights can purchase wheelchairs valued for as much as $500.00 for
as little as $150.00 when they are purchased by 100 or 200 count containers.
Our NC State Council has joined in the effort and is encouraging 100% involvement
for councils in the state. Grand Knights and others seeking additional information
may contact me at navydaze@comporium.net.
Fraternally,
David Wilson,
NC Wheelchair Chairman
