Independence for Muhammad: powered wheelchair

A powered wheelchair would give Muhammad independence - we're $1,200 away.

Lahore
I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Lahore Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,200. My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $1,200 goes: • powered wheelchair: $1,100 • Fitting and training sessions: $35 • Delivery and set-up: $15 • First-year servicing plan: $50 If you're reading this, thank you.

        Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Quezon City.
