A stair-climbing aid for Courtney: help Courtney move freely
Help Courtney get a stair-climbing aid so She can attend work interviews.
🇺🇸 United States5,047 views
Courtney lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the San Jose Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,750.
Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Courtney could attend work interviews. 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 $5,750 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $5,000
• Fitting and training sessions: $145
• Delivery and set-up: $195
• First-year servicing plan: $410
Every share and every dollar helps.

this could happen to any of us. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
