Equip KIDS International

Equip KIDS International Our work is currently based in Peru. We are a small organization trying to have a big impact.

Equip KIDS International is a small, Canadian organization dedicated to advocating for and supporting children with disabilities in the global south ("developing countries"). We believe that all children deserve (and have a right to!) mobility, communication, quality healthcare and education, community/belonging and recreation - among many other things. In many countries around the world, children

with disabilities don't have access to these basic rights and they are often excluded from their communities, while their parents struggle to get by with little support and/or understanding. Our work in Peru is focused on supporting children with disabilities and their families in their struggle to access their rights, while raising awareness and knowledge about disability in broader society. We provide wheelchairs and other assistive technology to children in need; augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) support and services; we work with and support local community-based rehabilitation (CBR) programs; and we provide workshops, information and support to parents, community members and professionals that work with children with disabilities around the country. We have very low administrative costs and we rely heavily on volunteers and the solidarity of others. Please let us know if you have any questions or would like to become involved.

This 𝐆𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲, we’re raising funds to send a container full of pediatric wheelchairs, walkers, standers, and other mobility devices to children in Peru who urgently need them.

- A container full of life-changing mobility, independence, and possibility.
- A container full of hope, dignity, and the chance for a child to go to school, play with friends, and participate fully in their community.
- A container full of love and solidarity for families who have been waiting, often for many years, for the basic supports their children deserve.

In Peru and across the Global South, children with disabilities regularly go without the equipment and support they need to move safely, communicate, learn, and thrive.

Together, we can fill this container, and we can fill the lives of children and families with opportunity, freedom, and hope.
Donate today and help us change what’s possible: https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/equip-kids-international/
Every contribution, big or small, makes a meaningful difference.

Thank you for standing with us in solidarity, compassion, and action.
Let’s make this Giving Tuesday one of transformation. 💛

To everyone who ran, donated, cheered us on, or helped spread the word - thank you for making last weekend’s Toronto Waterfront races such a great success for Equip KIDS International!

Our amazing team showed up with much heart, purpose, and determination, running not just for fun, but to raise funds that will help us send a shipping container of pediatric wheelchairs and assistive devices to kids with disabilities in Peru. Check out the photos and see if you can't find a few Equip KIDS team members. :)

So far, we’ve raised almost $3,500, and we’re not done yet!
There’s still time to donate and share so we can reach our goal and help kids access the mobility, inclusion, and dignity they deserve. Every dollar counts.

Good luck to our 5 km racers at the Toronto Waterfront 5 km race tomorrow! They'll be out there running, rolling and walking to help raise funds so that we can send urgently-needed pediatric wheelchairs to Peru.

There's still time to help us reach our goal of raising $5000 (enough to send 20 life-changing wheelchairs).
