Kemi lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Gwagwalada Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $950. Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Kemi could go to school independently. 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $950 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $840 • Fitting and training sessions: $35 • Delivery and set-up: $25 • First-year servicing plan: $50 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
