Bapak Sugiharto

Bapak Sugiharto is 43 years old and a father of two kids. The oldest graduated from school this year and the youngest is still in middle school.

It has been 4 years since Bapak Sugiharto fell while working on a building project, leaving him as a paraplegic ( leg paralysis ). Now, he and his wife live in Kulonprogo, where his wife has a food stall.

Even though Bapak Sugiharto had a borrowed wheelchair, it was too big for him making it difficult for him to move independently. Bapak Sugiharto has since returned the wheelchair at the lender’s request, leaving him without one for some time.

With this wheelchair, Bapak Sugiharto can move independently, take care of himself, and help his wife at their food stall.
