Funding for Lock Docking System for Mobility Vehicle

Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

My daughter has a powered wheel chair which I (her Mum) have to secure in the van-manually which is fixed to the floor by seatbelt strappings with hooks that hook into the chair.

I have to get on my hands and knees to be able to do this each time the chair goes in and out the van which with my back and hands i cannot do!

I am now 71 years old and have back and hand issues. (Doctors verification)

These problems are preventing me from being able to fix the chair in and out of the van.

I am unable to get funding as funding for disabled people have been cut by the government.

I need an automatic locking system (EZ Lock Docking System) fitted so Michelle can be hoisted into the van and drive her chair straight in and it automatically locks in.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
