An adapted tricycle for Hiba: help me move freely
Help Hiba get an adapted tricycle so She can join the school sports day.
🇸🇦 Jeddah, Makkah, Saudi Arabia1,235 views
I live with muscular dystrophy. My occupational therapist at the Jeddah Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $500.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home.
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 $500 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $230
• Delivery and set-up: $50
• First-year servicing plan: $220
Every share and every dollar helps.

Keep going, Hiba. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Barranquilla but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Sending love, Hiba. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
how is Hiba doing now?
Sending strength, Hiba. Looking forward to the next update. God bless
sending good thoughts, Hiba. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.
take care, Hiba. Get well soon. Love from Grand Rapids
