In Argentina today, millions of people with disabilities face barriers that go far beyond mobility: barriers to education, employment, healthcare, and dignity.
While the country is experiencing some economic stabilization, inflation remains extremely high and public systems are under enormous strain.
That’s where CILSA comes in. For more than 60 years, CILSA has built one of the largest inclusion networks in Argentina, reaching vulnerable communities across the country through wheelchairs, education, employment training, sports, and community programs.
A Wheelchair Is Never Just a Wheelchair
What makes this work so powerful is that a wheelchair becomes access to school, work, independence, and participation in society.
63.000
Lives Transformed
Thanks to partnerships with American donors, Rotary leaders, and foundations, more than 63.000 wheelchairs have been distributed nationwide – transforming lives at every stage of life.
An Extraordinary Multiplier Effect
In a country where nonprofits are essential to sustaining social inclusion, international support has an extraordinary multiplier effect. A contribution in the U.S. can directly help restore mobility, dignity, and opportunity for thousands of families in Argentina.
The CILSA America Foundation is a civil society organization that addresses the needs of people with disabilities living in poverty in Argentina. Together with strategic partners, we expand our reach and impact by providing wheelchairs to promote their social and community inclusion.
We aspire to a society where all people can develop to their full potential, free from barriers that limit their growth and participation.
Solidarity, dedication to service, responsibility, respect, commitment, honesty, justice, transparency, empathy.
