 Hi, my name is Jodash, I'm 28 years of age and I'm raising money to buy a new motorized wheelchair.

I was diagnosed with cerebral palsy shortly after I turned one (1) and have had to use a wheelchair since childhood. I currently reside at Brake Village, Tongaat, KZN

I've owned a motorized wheelchair for the last 16 years which was secured through sponsorship as well and it is the only motorized wheelchair I've owned. It has been the ideal tool in enabling me to be more independent and most importantly, providing support and comfort, ensuring that I didn't experience a sharp decline in my physical state or capabilities and improving my health overall.

However, this is no longer the case...16 years have come and gone, I’ve outgrown the wheelchair and no longer get the comfort or support that I need and it's now hurting me physically.

Motorized wheelchairs are expensive and it’s always been out of reach for my family and me from a financial standpoint and continual rise in costs ensures that it remains out of our reach.

Funds we raise from this campaign will be used to buy a new motorized wheelchair that's better suited to meet my needs as an adult. If we raise enough funding, we can add additional seating implements to correct posture, alleviate pain, improve overall health and quality of life.

Any amount you contribute is greatly appreciated. If you are unable to contribute, please consider sharing my campaign with your family and friends. Thank you!

PS. I will provide Quotation from Medical Service Providers specializing in Motorized Wheelchair and customized seating equipment after being assessed by these providers
