Independence for Sunita: adapted tricycle
An adapted tricycle would give Sunita independence - we're $1,300 away.

Sunita lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the Nizamabad Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,300.
Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Sunita 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 $1,300 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $1,200
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• First-year servicing plan: $25
I hope life is good to you.

So sorry you're going through this, Anita. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Anita. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.
take care, Anita. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
