A stair-climbing aid for Mykola: help Mykola move freely
A stair-climbing aid would give Mykola independence - we're $2,500 away.

Mykola lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Moscow Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,500.
His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Mykola could go to school independently. 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 $2,500 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $2,350
• Delivery and set-up: $65
• Fitting and training sessions: $85
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
