Dear Friends, This past Wednesday and Thursday we had 19 physical
therapy students from 2 universities at our Hope Haven Guatemala
wheelchair factory in Antigua. Along with the 2 professors was Dr.
Sheryl Low from Cal State's PT dept. Seeing US and Guatemalan PT
students and professors work side by side with our factory worker
was a win win situation for the many children that were fitted with a
Hope Haven KidChair. We are looking at growing our infrastructure so
that we can have designated areas for custom seating, assistive
technology and therapy. Now we must clean off our work tables on the
days we do seating clinics and lay out therapy mats. We will keep
you posted on our progress. I just arrived in Lima, Peru with a
dream team of pediatric specialists from around the US. We should
have a sideshow ready later in the week. Thanks for your support!
Hasta luego,
