Vasile needs a stair-climbing aid - help us make it happen
Help Vasile get a stair-climbing aid so He can go to school independently.
🇷🇴 Romania2,524 views
Vasile lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the București 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 $2,650.
His current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Vasile could go to school independently. 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 $2,650 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $2,450
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
• Delivery and set-up: $50
• First-year servicing plan: $95
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
