On February 26, we celebrated the 18th birthday of the PAY IT FORWARD Foundation. Foundation charges, volunteers and staff spent the day at the Rehabilitation Center. We broadcast a live report every hour. We told what we do, with whom and why, who we help and who helps us. There were delicious cakes and we sang Happy birthday! For the youngest we prepared various games and activities.
At the beginning of March on the roof of our center we installed 72 photovoltaic panels with nominal power of 450 Wp. Thanks to that we will be able to allocate the obtained savings to financing the therapy and rehabilitation of the disabled!
On 29 March a group of our friends brought and planted 55 beautiful trees. Our park is getting more and more beautiful!
On April 14 we installed devices that imitate obstacles - curbs, stairs, unevenness. People in wheelchairs face similar barriers in everyday life. We called it the Park of Independence.
We filmed 16 training videos for people with disabilities. This allows people with different types of disabilities to train at home. We shot some of the films at the Rehabilitation Center.
Since the beginning of March at the Foundation we have been helping disabled refugees from Ukraine and their families. Currently there are 25 people in the Foundation (including 11 people in wheelchairs), for whom we provide accommodation, food and everything they need. All people with disabilities have comprehensive rehabilitation at our Rehabilitation Center. We try to help wisely and have enough strength and resources so that our Polish charges do not suffer.
Regular day care and rehabilitation classes are held at our Rehabilitation Center.
