Oskar lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at Leipzig General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $500. His current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Oskar could join the school sports day. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $500 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $240 • Fitting and training sessions: $190 • Delivery and set-up: $70 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
