Born without legs --- ARSOBO Changes Lives

Donation protected
In many societies individuals with disabilities are discriminated against or just forgotten.

Arizona Sonora Border Project for Inclusion (ARSOBO) needs your help to bring those with disabilities into the light and to move from 70% to 100% self-sufficiency!

The Arizona-stationed Board of Directors that oversees ARSOBO will expand the operation to include four profit-generating products: building aluminum, lightweight, durable all-terrain wheelchairs, manufacturing electric wheelchairs, switching to suction sockets for prosthetics, and the option to purchase digital hearing aids.

You will enable ARSOBO to enable the disabled achieve self-sufficiency!

ARSOBO is a cross-border project in Nogales, Mexico that trains and employs those with a disability to build the medical device they use.
Wheelchair users construct all-terrain wheelchairs for other adults and children with cerebral palsy. Skilled technicians who have an amputation fabricate prosthetics and orthotics. Hearing impaired help in a hearing clinic to evaluate for hearing loss in others and provide hearing aids.

Each recipient pays for the device but only what they can afford. It’s not a handout but a hand-up.

ARSOBO has served over 2000 people and children from 13 different states and 97 cities in Mexico.
With the appropriate equipment, adults can get a job, re-enter society, and engage in conversations. Children can return to school and interact with peers.

We need your help to become self-sufficient and continue assisting those with disabilities.
