Independence for Rodrigo: adapted tricycle

Rodrigo lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Porto Alegre Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,400. His current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Rodrigo could speak with the people around him. 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 $1,400 goes: • adapted tricycle: $1,150 • Fitting and training sessions: $125 • Delivery and set-up: $25 • First-year servicing plan: $100 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Heloísa
