Mobility fund: powered wheelchair for Arjun in Muzaffarpur
A powered wheelchair would give Arjun independence - we're $100 away.
🇮🇳 Muzaffarpur, Bihar, India1,694 views
Arjun lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Muzaffarpur Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
His current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment Arjun could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $100 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $10
• Fitting and training sessions: $35
• First-year servicing plan: $55
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
