00:00Old wheelchair with foam wrapped around the handle and rubber of the wheel serves the foot of a man we met in Eastern Samar but continues to fight the challenge of life.

00:18He is one of the founders of the new wheelchair this National Disability Prevention and Rehabilitation Week.

00:30He is happy to be back from an accident that is now making it difficult for Edgar.

00:38I didn't mean to do it.

00:40When we were on our way home, we almost got into an accident.

00:46I was just by his side.

00:47I didn't know that we would really get into an accident.

00:50The bullet was in my spinal column.

00:53Since then, Edgar has not been able to walk.

00:56He is also living alone.

00:58When he repairs his old wheelchair, he pays Php 30 per wheelchair.

01:05Sometimes, he only earns Php 90 a day.

01:09To be able to move, he uses his old wheelchair.

01:15It is important for me to do it so that I can get what I want to eat.

01:25So that his body cannot be seen, he uses foam wrapped in a sack and rubber wheels that weigh 5 kilos.

01:36This National Disability Prevention and Rehabilitation Week,

01:41GMA Kapusu Foundation gives wheelchairs to 12 towns in Eastern Samar.

01:48We also gave a 5-year-old pediatric wheelchair to Stacey

01:53who was affected by walking and had to undergo surgery due to hydrocephalus.

01:59It is a big help because it is difficult to get into school.

02:05It is very difficult to help the school.

02:08We are able to provide mobility and independence to PWDs.

02:14There are a lot of people in need and we were able to help a lot.

02:20My new wheelchair is like a new life for me.

02:23It is like a new step for me.

02:25For those who want to help, you can deposit in our bank accounts

02:30or send it to Cebuano Louisville.

02:32You can also do it online via GKash, Shopee, and Lazada.
