An adapted tricycle for Divya: help Divya move freely
Help Divya get an adapted tricycle so She can go to school independently.
Anywhere in the world1,264 views
Divya lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at Kochi General Hospital has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,150.
Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Divya 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 $1,150 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $1,050
• Fitting and training sessions: $35
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $50

Take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Mysuru
Hang in there, Kiran. Wishing Divya a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Divya
Sure. The biggest one is adapted tricycle, $1,050. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
hope things get better soon, Kiran. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out
Good luck, Kiran. Shared this with my family. Please keep us posted. All the best
hang in there, Kiran. Hope this works out for you. Take care
