Wheelchairs More than 100 million individuals worldwide have a disability that requires a wheelchair.  Without resources, less than one in one hundred of these individuals has a wheelchair.  Instead, they must rely on family and friends and often find themselves in situations where they must resort to crawling. To help, the Church distributes wheelchairs through local agencies, including first-lady foundations. Since 2001, the Church has distributed over 190,000 wheelchairs at a total cost of 13.1 million (USD). In 2006, the Church distributed more than 50,000 wheelchairs in 56 countries, including Albania, American Samoa, Angola, Argentina, Armenia, Barbados, Botswana, Brazil, Bulgaria, Cambodia, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Dominican Republic, Egypt, Ethiopia, Fiji, Ghana, Guatemala, India, Indonesia, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Malaysia, Mexico, Micronesia, Moldova, Mozambique, Myanmar, Nepal, Palau, Palestine, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Romania, Russia, Samoa, Serbia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Suriname, Tanzania, Thailand, Tonga, Trinidad, Turkey, Ukraine, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe.
