(Istockanalyst) - There are more than 150 million people—roughly 2 percent of all the people on earth—who are in need of a wheelchair, but cannot afford one, according to the World Health Organization.
My long-time friend Gordon Holmes, publisher of Streetwise Reports (The Gold Report and The Energy Report) and founder of Lookout Ridge Winery, has developed a unique approach to help this cause called the "Wines for Wheelchairs" program. For every bottle of a certain wine or every case of wine you buy, the winery donates a wheelchair in your name to an individual anywhere in the world who is in need. Gordon also began the "Movement for Mobility" program, which works with mining companies all over the world to provide turnkey solutions to bring wheelchairs into their local communities.
