The Right Chair
I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. In China, the philosophy of Communism shapes people’s thinking, so there isn’t much individuality. Well, our Wheels for the World team visited a facility in Shanghai, China for elderly folks needing wheelchairs. When we arrived, our Wheels’ team leader lined up a wonderful assortment of different kinds of wheelchairs and said, “Friends, each of these wheelchairs is totally unique because people and their needs are unique. We are committed to finding the right chair for each specific need.” A murmuring began among the staff. And one person said, “This just doesn’t happen here. What you’re saying is a new concept.” Yep, Wheels for the World is changing the way people think in China. It’s individual wheelchairs for individuals and their individual needs. Find out more about our outreach to China by visiting us today at joniandfriends.org.
