Boon needs a stair-climbing aid - help us make it happen
Help Boon get a stair-climbing aid so He can attend work interviews.
🇹🇭 Thailand2,463 views
Boon lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Chiang Mai Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,600.
His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Boon could attend work interviews. 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 $1,600 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $1,400
• Fitting and training sessions: $95
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $80
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Rooting for you, Uthai. Shared this with my family. Love from Surakarta.
Keep going, Uthai. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in Nakhon Ratchasima donated after I showed her your page.
Sending strength, Uthai. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 37 people at work. Blessings
praying for you, Uthai. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Chiang Mai.
Thinking of you, Uthai. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Paris so I could bring a meal. God bless
