Arjun lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Mumbai Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000. His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Arjun could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $1,000 goes: • powered wheelchair: $890 • Fitting and training sessions: $50 • Delivery and set-up: $25 • First-year servicing plan: $35 With deep gratitude, Aadhya
