LES 4 ROUES ASSOCIATION
The charity was created in 2000 by residents, their families and staff members of the Maison Bleue, a living centre for disabled people in Saint-Pourçain, in Puy de Dôme.
The purpose of this self-managed charity is to promote projects and the integration of people with reduced mobility, who are residents of the institution.
Several projects have been carried out: production of short films, adapted skiing, wheelchair football, Cimgo Open de France (machines allowing people with disabilities to venture on all types of terrain for hiking or walking).
These initiatives are financed by various events: organisation of bingo nights, theatrical evenings, garage sales, sale of an annual newspaper, as well as various donations and private sponsorship.
In the words of Dub inc
We first
heard of the 4 Roues organisation via a Facebook post about a show
which was going to be held at the Zénith de Clermont-Ferrand in November
2022. With our system for selling cups already in place, we surveyed
our public on what local structure or initiative we should support. The 4
Roues association was thus suggested to us, and when we met them,
everything went pretty smoothly, especially since members of the
organisation had already planned to come to the show anyway.
