'Sweethearts Foundation' Providing Basic Human Rights, Wheelchairs To the Needy

1010 WINS- For those requiring enhanced mobility, the wheelchair is one of the most commonly used devices -- yet many people the world over go without such necessary equipment.

South Africa's Sweethearts Foundation recognizes this and has helped thousands of bed-ridden citizens who rely on family members' assistance to get around. The foundation's fundamental belief: A wheelchair is a basic human right.

The Sweethearts Foundation, with corporate support as well as generous donations from schools and volunteers, provides mobility to the needy through their 'Tops & Tags' program -- selling plastic bottle tops and bread tags to recycling plants and using the funds to purchase and even customize wheelchairs.
