Candra lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Semarang Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,250. His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks. With the right equipment Candra 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 $1,250 goes: • powered wheelchair: $1,150 • Fitting and training sessions: $15 • Delivery and set-up: $25 • First-year servicing plan: $60 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Ratna

    Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Semarang.

        I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Semarang.

        • Gabriel B. Sandoval

          Thinking of you. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Curitiba.

            Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Bonny
