Don Schoendorfer creates makeshift wheelchairs for the disabled around the world. They cost him less than $49, but he has given away a quarter million of them for free. This video report aired in December, but last week Don became one of three American unsung heroes to recieve the Above and Beyond Citizen Honors, awarded by the Society of Medal of Honor recipients.
Also watch an NBC clip of the awards ceremony on their website, www.freewheelchairmission.org, and while you are there, DONATE to this noble, wonderful effort.
Cool! Awesome act of generosity! Rejoice! May all be liberated and be happy!
