We are delighted to announce the launch of Move for Mobility, a global fundraising initiative with our partner, Free Wheelchair Mission. Our Invacare fundraiser will take place this May, across twenty participating countries.

During next month’s Move for Mobility initiative, hundreds of Invacare employees around the world will participate in a collective effort to support Free Wheelchair Mission’s work in providing life-changing wheelchairs to people living in remote communities with no access to mobility equipment. Our employees will take part by being active from walking, rolling, running, or taking up a physical team challenge all to raise awareness and funds for this great cause.
For over five years, we have shared our technical skills and expertise to help with the research, design, and production of cost-effective wheelchairs for Free Wheelchair Mission. Together in 2024, we are deepening our partnership by helping to raise funds for even more wheelchairs.
With an estimated 80 million people in the world in need of a wheelchair, Move for Mobility aims to make a real impact by raising funds to provide wheelchairs to many people with no access to equipment or even healthcare.

“By combining our joint resources and expertise, with our global partner Free Wheelchair Mission, we aim to raise awareness and help transform lives around the world. We look forward to taking part. I am personally very proud that hundreds of our employees have signed up to get active and support this cause,” stated Geoff Purtill, Invacare President & CEO.

For every $96 raised, a wheelchair will be donated, enabling people in remote communities to lead more independent and fulfilling lives.
Nuka Solomon, CEO for Free Wheelchair Mission also commented, “We are grateful and proud of the strong partnership we’ve developed with Invacare over the past few years and are excited to see their teams moving in May to help us raise funds and awareness to provide wheelchairs to those who are waiting for them. Together, we are excited to work toward a long-term goal to get wheelchairs to communities with no access to mobility solutions.”
