Help Ayaan get a powered wheelchair so He can go outside without waiting for someone to push.

Ayaan lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at Bhopal General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000. His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Ayaan could go outside without waiting for someone to push. It would change everyday life for the whole family. We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $1,000 goes: • powered wheelchair: $880 • First-year servicing plan: $40 • Fitting and training sessions: $80 Thank you for reading my story. - Karan

    Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. After 11 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
