Life Changing Humanitarian Services, ( LICHA) Cameroon has come to the aid of a 23-year-old orphan living with multiple disabilities in Mbelewa Nkwen, Bamenda. The young woman, who lost her father six years ago, developed a severe muscular dystrophy during her early secondary school years, leaving her with serious mobility challenges.
Until LICHA’s intervention, she had been sleeping on a hard wooden chair in their dilapidated home. The organisation recently provided her with a modern bed, mattress, pillows, blanket, and bedsheets to improve her living conditions. This comes in addition to an earlier donation of a wheelchair to support her movement within the home.
New bed for the young womanDespite these efforts, LICHA has highlighted the pressing need for further assistance, particularly the construction of a wheelchair ramp to make her home more accessible. The organisation is appealing to well-wishers and partners to support this initiative, aiming to restore dignity and improve the quality of life for the young woman.
Previous sleeping facility LICHA officials under the coordination of Fonjum Promise was accompanied by the leadership of Coordinating Unit of Associations of Persons with Disabilities (CUAPWD).
