The Prize

Donate a stuffed Papa Smurf to a child in hospital!

The Smurfs celebrate their 60th birthday! To mark the occasion they have decided to help Wheeling Around the World buy a large fully-equipped motor home bus that will allow people with disabilities to travel throughout Europe without barriers to access.

You can further support the Wheeling Around the World mission by giving a gift that truly keeps on giving.

When you purchase this Smurf you will not receive the item. Instead, a Smurf will be donated to a child in hospital. The more Smurfs you purchase, the more children you can support.

The Smurf is 25 cm tall.

The purchase of unique items through an auction house requires careful evaluation by the buyer. We invite you to personally examine all the information and material at your disposal, including our returns policy, before proceeding with purchase.

The Cause

As you may have noticed, the world of disability and mobility is developing fast, and mentalities about the necessity to get a maximum of accessible places have been evolving.

It is increasingly common to talk about the “Disability market” because the tourism sector is aware that there is a real opportunity to attract and retain new customers, who were often cast aside in the past. Unfortunately, a large amount of persons with reduced mobility still do not travel and are often reluctant to move into unfamiliar surroundings.

80% of people do not travel because they do not get responses to their requests, and the necessary information in order to prepare their trip in the best possible way. The Wheeling Around the World Foundation’s aim is to break down the barriers in order to enable everyone to travel in the best possible conditions, and to fulfill their dreams.

The Wheeling Around the World Foundation also intends to be the spokesperson of disability and mobility, in order to heighten the awareness of institutions and the tourism industry about the importance of accessibility for everyone.
