SUMMARY:Moody Radio Wheelchair Collection
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a manual wheelchair that is no longer being used? Donate it to Joni and Friends on September 12th at one of the locations listed below. You can change the life of someone living with a disability! \nWorldwide millions of people are in need of a wheelchair. Of those in need\, 80% live in developing nations where wheelchairs are unavailable or unaffordable. As a result\, people living with disability are often isolated\, rejected\, and ignored by their community. You can help change this! \nEvery wheelchair donated to Joni and Friends is the opportunity for someone to experience the love and hope of Jesus Christ! Joni and Friends and Moody Radio invite you to donate used manual wheelchairs so they can be restored to like-new condition and delivered to people in need in a developing nation. Wheelchairs are custom fit to a recipient’s unique needs through our Wheels for the World® program\, and every wheelchair is delivered with the message of hope in Jesus along with a Bible in the recipient’s language. \nLocationsChattanooga\nSilverdale Baptist Annex Building\n2839 Silverdale Road\nChattanooga\, TN 37421 \nContacts: \n\nRichard and Tina Kimball – 423-605-6883\nWayne Smith – 423-667-1278\n\nCleveland Area\nNorth Field Baptist Church\n311 W.
