Independence for Yu-na: stair-climbing aid

Help Yu-na get a stair-climbing aid so She can join the school sports day.

Yu-na lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the Seoul 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 $5,100. Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Yu-na could join the school sports day. 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 $5,100 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $4,650 • Fitting and training sessions: $220 • Delivery and set-up: $90 • First-year servicing plan: $140 Every share and every dollar helps. - Min-seo

    Is there anything that isn't money that would help Yu-na?

      Thank you. If you're in Seoul I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
