RoughRider Wheelchair Project:
Building partnerships yields the RoughRider Wheelchair Project
The Arthur B. Schultz Foundation proudly sponsors the RoughRider Wheelchair Project, to address the overwhelming need for wheelchairs in Vietnam. ABSF has partnered with American and Norwegian wheelchair design and manufacturing companies to enable a Vietnamese wheelchair manufacturer in Ho Chi Minh City to build and distribute rugged, easily repairable, and ultra affordable wheelchairs to disabled Vietnamese.
Since the Nov 2007 inception of our online sponsorship program, over 1,000 Vietnamese have received new wheelchairs from donations by ABSF and individual sponsors.
