This page is to raise funds for my niece. She has limited capacity to earn a decent wage due to having Intellectual Disability.
Canterbury
URGENT UPDATE: Rebekah started a course last week in Animal Care. It has elements of numeracy which she really struggles with so we are hoping to raise enough money so that she can have a series of one on one appointments with a private tutor.
Rebekah has lived with us since December 2, 2017. She has Intellectual Disability which is kind of severe as it affects her whole life. Her processing is very slow, she basically has virtually no problem solving skills and her biggest challenge is numeracy, handling money and anything to do with numbers (Dyscalculia). Secondly, she has been struggling with making new friends because it is really difficult to strike up a conversation and connection. She does manage to do things with extra time and support but things take time.
She has quite a lot of ongoing needs and one specific need is for technology items such as a phone and Ipad/ computer. Another is for clothing.
I am her maternal aunty and she has been living with us since December 2, 2017.
Rebekah has Intellectual Disability, also hasn't lived with her parents since she was 7 years old through no fault of her own and she has quite high needs which her parents do not help out with at all.
The money will be used for any of Rebekah's ongoing needs such as items for education, technology needs, nutritional needs, clothing, potentially transportation and anything that would benefit her due to her disability, counselling.
