- Richard St.Denis
Richard is the Director and Founder of World Access Project. Previously he was the Recreation & Sports Director of The Mobility Project, until the organization closed in August 2009. He and his wife, Daniela, live in Mexico full-time. He has been providing wheelchairs to people with disabilities throughout the world since 1997. Richard is a retired attorney and a service-connected disabled veteran of the U.S. Air Force. He is a certified Ski & Tennis Instructor for people with disabilities. In 2011 he was selected as one of CNN Top 10 Heroes for his work with World Access Project.
Richard’s vision for World Access Project is to provide mobility equipment to 1,000 people each year and develop a ‘Life Rehabilitation Center’ facility, where people can receive 'life rehabilitation' - learn to use their wheelchairs, learn life-skills that will provide them with employment, develop their self-confidence and independence, and a spiritual base to bring people closer to God. He hopes someday it will be run by Mexican people with disabilities to help other disabled Mexicans.

Donation Center
At our Donation Center a staff of 6 Mexican workers, with and without disabilities, make the daily ministry of World Access Project possible. Our at our Donation Center, daily, donate, refurbish and repair wheelchairs in communities near Jocotitlan, in the state of Mexico, and regularly we travel to other communities outside of the state of Mexico. It's much more than giving a wheelchair, it's about changing a life, and the lives of the family, so they all have a better quality of life and can be more active and involved in their community.
