Staff help people with disabilities fitted with prosthetic limbs.

The Municipal Disabled Persons' Federation and caring enterprises have installed prosthetic limbs for us and adjusted them for us, so that we can go out for a walk at any time in the future. Thank you very much for your care and love for our disabled people, and thank you for the help of caring enterprises. On January 10, citizen Tu Fulu said excitedly after fitting a prosthetic.

On the morning of the same day, the Lanzhou Arowana prosthetic walking project entered the installation stage. At the site of the Gansu Provincial Assistive Devices Resource Center for the Disabled, the staff is helping the disabled people who have completed the installation of prostheses to carry out adaptive training, adjust the prostheses in time according to their feedback, and patiently explain the basic knowledge of precautions and maintenance in the later stage.

With the active support of the Lanzhou Disabled Persons' Federation, the prosthetic walking project was jointly organized by the Arowana Charity Association and Yihai Kerry (Lanzhou) Grain and Oil Industry Shanghai Prosthetic Factory, and 60 cases of lower limb prostheses were equipped free of charge for 55 people with severe physical disabilities in our city, including 21 cases of thighs and 39 cases of lower legs, with a total value of 4620,000 yuan.

Cui Shi, Manager of the Personnel Administration Department of Yihai Kerry (Lanzhou) Grain and Oil Industry, introduced: "By the end of 2023, Yihai Kerry Group has donated a total of 38 Yihai schools, established 3 Yihai Education Centers and 2 nursing homes across the country through the Arowana Charity Association, and funded nearly 2,000 prosthetic limbs. It is hoped that through this activity, the quality of life of the disabled in our city can be further improved and help them better integrate into society. ”

In the next step, the Municipal Disabled Persons' Federation will gather and integrate more caring resources, build a good ecology in the field of public welfare for the disabled in our city, and contribute to further promoting the comprehensive development of the cause of the disabled. Teng Hanyun, member of the party group and vice chairman of the Lanzhou Disabled Persons' Federation, said.
