LotusFM to give away 30 wheelchairs to the disabled

This initiative is sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which is set to improve the lives of those who are handicapped in our community by providing mobility.

Alvin Pillay, station manager of LotusFM, said: "We are a brand that is all about its community, its listeners and families. Our mandate is to serve the community by resourcing and developing individuals who are less fortunate. These new wheelchairs will give those in need a new lease of life."

This wheelchair project is designed to improve employment, independence, health and educational and economic opportunities for people living with physical disabilities.

If you are in need of a wheelchair, fill in an application form at LotusFM offices (100 KE Masinga Road, Durban) or go to Lotusfm.co.za for more information. Applications close on 30 April, 2013.
