In a heartwarming act of kindness, a local philanthropist has transformed the life of a physically impaired cobbler by gifting him a new wheelchair. The smile on Kiffude’s face after receiving the wheelchair told a story of gratitude.  Speaking to TUKO.co.ke, philanthropist Mutebi Aisha disclosed that the impaired man earns a living as a cobbler in Majengo. Kiffude’s struggles without a wheelchair She explained that it all began when she posted that she was looking for a wheelchair for someone else, and Kiffude reached out. The cobbler, who has been a familiar figure in the community for years, had faced immense difficulties due to his physical impairment. Despite his determination to work and provide for his family, the lack of proper mobility equipment hindered his productivity and limited customer access. “He told me he needed my help too, so I posted pictures and videos of him, after which a well-wisher called Rani Ramchandani came through,” she said. What the wheelchair means to Kiffude The generous gesture brought renewed hope and independence to the cobbler, who was overwhelmed with gratitude. Photos captured Kiffude smiling ear to ear as he rode away in the wheelchair designed to enhance his mobility and comfort. “This wheelchair will change my life. I can now move around more freely and serve my customers better,” he said. Kiffude thanked God and the kind-hearted individuals who made things possible.
