All-Terrain Wheelchairs for Wounded Troops
Freedom Alliance improves mobility for amputees and paralyzed veterans with the gift of All-Terrain Wheelchairs.
The chairs are customized to each service member’s needs and outfitted for comfort. Features can include a gun rack, fishing pole insert, a cooler mount, and more. Chairs include a trailer bed for vehicle transport.
The Need:
- More than 1,500 service members have suffered a major limb amputation and more than 80 percent of those have lost one or both legs.
- Independence and freedom of mobility are keys to successful rehabilitation.

Freedom Alliance has improved the lives of dozens of service members with these chairs. We have increased their independence and reduced their reliance on others.

Freedom Alliance is amazing! After being injured in Iraq, I was not able to fish or hunt with my family. Freedom Alliance gave me that Freedom back by giving me a trek chair. They make you know you are not just a name but a part of the family. During covid I wasn’t able to get the access I needed for mental health, and Freedom Alliance was able to find me a laptop to use to facetime with my counselor. I can’t say how grateful I am for everything they have done!!!
