Help Kylie get a stair-climbing aid so She can get to the shops and visit friends.
Anywhere in the world3,608 views
Kylie lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Winnipeg 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 $6,850.
Her current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Kylie 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $6,850 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $80
• stair-climbing aid: $6,500
• Fitting and training sessions: $270
Every share and every dollar helps.

Thank you. If you're in Winnipeg I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
You're not alone, Ezra. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
