–Disabled group to celebrate 10th anniversary; wants support to distribute wheel chairsTo celebrate its 10th anniversary, the Florence A. Tolbert & The Disabled Advocates Incorporated will reach out to disabled Liberians in three southeastern counties with 186 appropriate wheelchair carts, according to its executive director, Sam Dean. To reach the beneficiaries in the targeted counties, according to Sam Dean, his outfit does not have funds or a vehicle to transport them, and is therefore asking for financial and material assistance to get the wheelchair carts to those in need in the three targeted counties. He said challenges facing disabled Liberians should not be ignored by the incoming government, as it was in past governments. The Florence A. Tolbert & Disabled Advocates Incorporated was established in 2008 to support and secure support for disabled Liberians throughout the country. Mobility Worldwide that provided the initial 186 wheelchair carts first began as P.E.T.
