In 2013 we began what has become the largest distribution of mobility devices in Nakuru County. Over the years we began bringing 2-3 wheelchairs every time we visited Kenya but word spread and soon the demand was much higher than we expected.

We eventually began the mammoth task of shipping our first container of wheelchairs, walkers, and crutches to Kenya in 2015. We spent the next year thereafter gifting independence to over 250 deserving people. Word spread and the waiting list for devices grew. Last year, at the height of the pandemic, we sent our second container full of medical equipment and mobility devices.

Our partners are busy on the ground distributing all of the devices as we speak. Now as a well established disability project, we continue receiving large donations of mobility devices. This round we want to focus more on specialized wheelchairs for athletes, tricycles and other devices for adults who need to get from one place to another, and wheelchairs for small children. We need your help to make this happen! Please consider donating towards our next container!

How we make a difference 

How we will tackle the local challenges 

How you can help 

 

Together with our partners in Kenya, Nathan Hall Williams Center (NHWC), we launched a campaign to collect donations for water filters.

More than 40% of the population of Kenya lacks access to clean and safe drinking water. Until now, it has been very difficult and sometimes dangerous for impoverished communities to rely on the inconsistent water sources available. Providing clean water is one of the most meaningful ways we can help improve the health, sanitation, and hygiene of the communities we work with in Kenya. These water filters are simple to use, affordable, and truly make a lasting impact on those we help. We want to see what happens when every single household in a village has access to clean, safe water.

A donation of 20€ will provide clean, safe water to a family for two years. We need your help to reach out to more families in need. Below are some pictures of previous distributions.

We have a new campaign shirt available which cost 20€. With this new shirt we want to raise awareness and collect more donations for this clean water project. Over the past years we were able to distribute water filters with a local ngo NHWC in Nakuru Kenya and gave more then 10.000 people access to clean water. In 2018 we want to distribute more filters and we want to build a well in the area where we distribute them. 100% of the sales of this shirt goes into this project.

Shirt is available in our online shop http://shop.hardcore-help.org

Das Leben auf der Straße ist gefährlich, besonders in den kalten Jahreszeiten. Laut Schätzungen der Bundesarbeitsgemeinschaft Wohnungslosenhilfe e.V sind allein in Deutschland seit 1991 rund 300 obdachlose Menschen erfroren. Deshalb versuchen wir mit der Hardcore Help Foundation, jedes Mal wenn wir Obdachlosenunterkünfte beliefern, nicht nur Kleidung, sondern auch Schlafsäcke, Decken und Isomatten mitzubringen. Denn all dies rettet Leben! Leider werden diese Produkte schneller verteilt, als sie gespendet werden können. Aus diesem Grund wollen wir, mit euch, Geld sammeln um gemeinsam diese lebenswichtigen Gegenstände kaufen zu können. Mit eurer Hilfe sollte es uns möglich sein, einen Grundbestandteil in unserem Lager aufzubauen, den wir bei zukünftigen Auslieferungen sinnvoll mit euren, ebenfalls sehr wichtigen, Kleidungsspenden kombinieren können.
Selbstverständlich werden wir ein Auge auf Aus- und Schlussverkäufe werfen, um möglichst viele dieser Produkte so günstig wie möglich zu erwerben. Fall ihr selbst in einem Sport- oder Campingladen arbeitet oder jemanden aus der Branche kennt und wisst, wie wir günstig an diese Dinge, oder sogar Spenden von Restbeständen, kommen können, schreibt uns gerne an
Info@Hardcore-Help.org

Wir bedanken uns schon jetzt bei jedem einzelnen, der sich an dem
Projekt beteiligt, es verbreitet oder uns dabei hilft möglichst viele, der aufgezählten Dinge, günstig zu erwerben.

In April we build a rehabilitation center out of the container we shipped in 2015 together with an architect Till Gröner.  We distributed the hundreds of wheelchairs, crutches, walkers, and medical supplies that you donated to us over the past two years. Mobility was given to many and we're seeing the impact our projects have on people with disabilities every day.
We believe that every individual has potential to do great things and we've made it our mission to support projects that believe in the same.
This center is special and our partners at NHWC provides Physio, occupational, speech, and trauma therapy every day to people who would otherwise go without. There's also be a mobility device workshop, where people can be measured for wheelchairs, walkers, and crutches that will then be customized to fit their specific needs.  The center also has a community outreach program where our therapists will go into the homes of people who stay further away or who can't afford to make it the center.
We can transform the lives of people with disabilities with your help!

Each month we sponsor a clinic in a low-income community within Nakuru County. Clinics are provided free of charge to families and individuals who cannot afford healthcare and thus, suffer from small ailments that prove life threatening. There is a strong emphasis on preventative services however, comprehensive healthcare services are offered to all who attend. Services include outpatient clinical services, HIV testing and counseling, short and long-term family planning, nutritional counseling and supplements, antenatal services for expectant mothers, immunizations for infant and small children, and medication when prescribed. On average each clinic provides healthcare for 250-300 people. To date we held more than 40 clinics and provided free healthcare to more than 15.000 people.
