Aria lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the New York Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,900. Her current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment Aria could join the school sports day. 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 $5,900 goes: • powered wheelchair: $5,500 • Fitting and training sessions: $290 • Delivery and set-up: $110 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
