Independence for Zlata: stair-climbing aid
Help Zlata get a stair-climbing aid so She can join the school sports day.
🇺🇦 Ukraine907 views
Zlata lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Kyiv 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 $1,550.
Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Zlata 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 $1,550 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $1,450
• Fitting and training sessions: $30
• Delivery and set-up: $10
• First-year servicing plan: $60
With deep gratitude,
Denis

Good news. Because of your gifts ($131 in total) I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
