Vehicles Donated to Inspiration Center
posted (December 16, 2014)
On Wednesday we reported on the launch of the 2015 Inspiration Center Calendar that features the drawings of 12 children. And today the center is making news again. They received two wheelchair accessible vehicles from Taiwan. Kendra Griffith, Executive Director of the Inspiration Center tells us how this donation will assist them to reach out to more children with diverse abilities.

David Lin, Foreign Minister, Taiwan
"I'm very happy to be here to witness the handing over of these two special vehicles. As I mentioned earlier, we are really supportive of this project to help the children, women here in Belize especially in cooperation with Mrs. Barrow."

Kendra Griffith, Executive Director, Inspiration Center
"These vehicles that were handed over today really contribute to the provision of our services because you would find that often the families of these children face severe financial constraints and these financial constraints don't allow them many times to access the basic services that they need. Sometimes healthcare services and even therapy services."

The 2014 El Dorado Aerotech 240 Bus along with the 2014 Ford E-250 van can carry 9 wheelchairs in all. Over 30 children will benefit from this donation.
