An attachment for a wheel chair in the form of a storage bag supported vertically between the rearwardly extending handles at the upper end of the wheelchair frame and a pair of bottom tip bars in such a manner that it can be folded with the wheelchair and provide a convenient and readily accessible storage area for various articles. The storage bag may be constructed of various flexible materials, provided with pockets if desired, provided with an open top if desired, provided with a zipper closure or other similar closure if desired and provided with sleeves or loops which receive the rearwardly extending handles and the bottom frame members or tip bars at the lower end of the wheelchair with the storage bag being retained in taut condition so that it does not interfere with rotation of the wheels nor become entangled with the wheels or soiled by engaging the wheels thereby enabling the wheelchair to be operated in the usual manner either by the occupant of the wheelchair or by a person pushing or otherwise manipulating the wheelchair by engagement with the rearwardly extending handles.
