Help John get a specialist standing frame so He can attend work interviews.
🇺🇬 Uganda780 views
John lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Mbarara Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $500.
His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment John could attend work interviews. 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 $500 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $400
• Fitting and training sessions: $30
• Delivery and set-up: $10
• First-year servicing plan: $60
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
