Independence for Hạnh: adapted tricycle
Hạnh needs an adapted tricycle that the health system won't fund; the cost is $6,000.

I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the San Jose Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,000.
My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $6,000 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $380
• adapted tricycle: $5,500
• Delivery and set-up: $120
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
- Hạnh

Thinking of you, Hạnh. Wishing Hạnh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care!
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Greetings from Verona.
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Bacolod.
wishing you the best. Get well soon. After 25 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Riyadh.
