Roofings Group, a leading East African producer of construction materials, has donated state-of-the-art wheelchairs to children with disabilities at the ongoing Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) Conference. The conference, organized by the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development, is a key platform for promoting inclusion and empowerment for people with disabilities.
A Sustainable Approach to Giving Back
These wheelchairs are a product of a workshop built in 2023 through Roofings Group's partnership with Kyaninga Mobility. This initiative aligns with the company's commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and empowers Ugandans with disabilities through local production of sustainable and easy-to-repair wheelchairs.
