A specialist standing frame for Jin-woo: help Jin-woo move freely
Help Jin-woo get a specialist standing frame so He can speak with the people around him.

Jin-woo lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Incheon Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,600.
His current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment Jin-woo could speak with the people around him. 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 $1,600 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $1,200
• Fitting and training sessions: $165
• Delivery and set-up: $70
• First-year servicing plan: $165
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
