Melvin, a boy born without legs, sits in his new sports wheelchair.

Shine the Light of Christ this Christmas! 

Send the light and hope of Christ into places of darkness and pain… 

For nine-year-old Melvin who lives in Kenya with amputated legs, life has been full of challenges. His mother, who is also disabled, can barely afford food and medicine, let alone a wheelchair for her son. But God had a plan to send their family bright new hope through the generosity of friends like you!

When Melvin received a wheelchair from Joni and Friends, a new world of dignity, joy, and freedom emerged.

Your gift sends beams of bright hope into our hurting world... and shines the light of Christ to people living with disability!
