Mobility fund: stair-climbing aid for Rodrigo in São Paulo

Rodrigo lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the São Paulo Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,700. His current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Rodrigo 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $2,700 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $2,500 • Fitting and training sessions: $105 • Delivery and set-up: $20 • First-year servicing plan: $75 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
