Help Neihana walk!

Help us buy a Trexo Robotic Walker for Neihana

Rotorua, Bay Of Plenty

Neihana is a 9 year old boy who is severely disabled. He lives his life between sitting in a wheelchair, a standing frame and lying down. However, he is a fun loving boy who would love to be able to move.

The Trexo walker is the first in the world which would allow him to take steps. It is not just for a fun experience but there are many important physical benefits of walking.

We need to buy the robotics legs, treadmill, pay for training, and the shipping from Canada. The cost of such a specialised device is huge and we would be extremely grateful for any support we can get towards paying for it. Thank you! xx

Use of funds

If we could raise $70,000 we could buy the robotics outright, however, if we can raise $45,000 we can at least get it on a subscription. Anything raised will go towards it, as well as our continuing our own savings and a loan if needed.
