Welcome to Crutches 4 Africa

MOBILITY        

    HEALTH        

        DIGNITY       

      HOPE

"We toil together to enable those we may not see. 

Hobbled in life by some illness, accident or act of violence.

Many are hopeless.

The generous donations

given to Crutches 4 Africa are the tools we use

to help raise the hindered,

to lift them from the dust

and help them on their way."

David Talbot   

Home from the U.K. where we were at the International Rotary convention in Birmingham.

In Tanzania and Kenya early in 2009

Over 400 devices were distributed, the lions share coming from New York City where some folks took on the project and saw it start to finish, storing devices in their closets, and basements until loading commenced on February 13th.  See our new album by clicking on this verbiage.

Collecting

CRUTCHES, CANES, WALKERS & WHEELCHAIRS

shipping them (and taking them as luggage) to Africa,

 and distributing them there, AT NO COST to the people who need them.

David Talbot is the founder of Crutches 4 Africa.

A polio survivor himself, David understands the need for mobility.

While in Africa filming a documentary, David saw the obvious need for crutches.

In particular was a woman, her right leg corkscrewed behind her

with her foot touching the back of her shoulder.

She was using a tree branch as a crutch...

Below, George Orapa, also a polio victim, distributes crutches on a rented motor bike.

This stock pile of mobility devices was distributed in a matter of days.
