Juan on the day he received his new ATW |
Remember Juan in Nicaragua? Juan received one of our All Terrain Wheelchairs (ATW) in late 2011. Lucy, our contact from Accion Esperanza / Partnership for Hope (Ashland, OR), recently visited Juan in his community of El Lagartillo and shared these brief updates:
- Work is underway to make the front entrance to Juan's house wheelchair accessible
- Juan received the replacement parts for his ATW (including new tubes and tools)
- He was pleased to note that the replacement tires for his ATW are a standard size bicycle tire that is locally available
"It is far superior to any chair I have ever been in.
It is fast and stable and looks forward to using it daily."
