Citlali needs a powered wheelchair - help us make it happen
Help Citlali get a powered wheelchair so She can join the school sports day.
🇺🇸 United States6,949 views
I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Riverside Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,750.
My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $6,750 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $110
• Fitting and training sessions: $150
• powered wheelchair: $6,490
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
