Become a Trip Volunteer
Are you an occupational therapist, physical therapist, or certified rehabilitation technology supplier looking for a rewarding experience? Donate your time to help custom fit mobility equipment for children and adults in developing countries.
Be a Volunteer Driver
When donors are unable to bring wheelchairs to our warehouse in North Hollywood, UCP Wheels for Humanity goes to them. Many volunteer drivers have their own vehicles that are used to pick up donations. At this time, volunteer drivers work only in California, collecting wheelchairs in their area. UCP Wheels for Humanity is in the early stages of exploring the creation of a nationwide coordinated collection system, so if you currently live in another state by sure to contact UCP Wheels for Humanity to explore the viability of the donation.
Volunteer in the Warehouse
UCP Wheels for Humanity's 10,880 square-foot warehouse in North Hollywood is where we receive donated wheelchairs and other ambulatory equipment on a daily basis from individuals, hospitals, medical supply companies and other organizations. We depend on volunteers to organize parts and refurbish wheelchairs; as well as packing, loading and labeling the newly refurbished wheelchairs for the children and adults waiting for them in the developing countries.
