wheelchair campaign

Get ready to make a difference!

 

Take the Wheel for a day in our Annual CEO Wheelchair Campaign® 2025 – and help raise funds towards the care of children and adults with profound intellectual disabilities at LITTLE EDEN.

This March, during Intellectual Disability Awareness Month, we’re calling on YOU – CEOs and business leaders – to ‘Ride a Mile in my Wheels’ by joining the 8th Annual CEO Wheelchair Campaign®.

Spend just one workday in a wheelchair to experience the challenges faced by wheelchair users, while helping us raise R1.5 million to support 300 residents with profound intellectual disability at LITTLE EDEN. With 71% of our residents relying on wheelchairs … and 68% coming from underprivileged or abandoned backgrounds … your support makes all the difference!

CEO of the NSF Group Nirishi Trikamjee.
