Contagem
Juliana lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at Contagem General Hospital has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $200. Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Juliana 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $200 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $85 • Fitting and training sessions: $60 • Delivery and set-up: $55 Thanks for being kind about this. - Giovana

            It's all in the list in the story. first-year servicing plan is the big one at $85, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Good question.
