with the help of the
Brazilian Inclusion Collective
ALEXANDRE PINTA, MEMBER:
"We do these arrangements little by little, every time we go up a road and come back with a different problem, we try to do something new so that the chair is always being perfected, that is our idea, to improve to be able to take people to more places."
The group is made of 124 volunteers
It helps people with disabilities explore trails
and partake in physical activities
ANDERSON CARLOS, MEMBER:
"I think that the Inclusion Collective is the best example of empathy, I can see a notorious feeling of empathy in every person in this group and it makes me very happy to know that even though I cannot walk with my legs, this group makes you go all the places in all the ways you want to go."
