Dima has his own wheelchair now!

Igra Charitable Foundation

Charitable foundation • Moscow

Dima now has an active wheelchair made just for him — tailored to his height, arm strength, and body’s needs. It allows him to move around on his own, be active at home and outside, study, play, and do things that used to be out of reach.

This year, Dima became a first-grader. He really wanted to go to school on his own — and he did it! He went to school in his new wheelchair, took part in the first-day assembly, and now studies in the first grade alongside his classmates.

Thank you to everyone who helped Dima become more independent and free from constant adult assistance!

Campaign information

Dima has a rare genetic disorder and needs help paying for an active wheelchair

Thanks to donations on Tooba, many children have already received active wheelchairs. Now they can move around independently, go for walks, attend school, and even do sports.

When people meet Dima for the first time, they would never guess he is different from other children. He is passionate about space, learning to play musical instruments, loves FIFA, and dreams of becoming a famous footballer once a cure for his condition is discovered.

Dima has a rare genetic disorder – Ullrich/Bethlem muscular dystrophy. The disease is progressing, and he has been unable to walk for more than two years.

Dima needs an active wheelchair to live without constantly relying on help and to be independent. This year, he is starting first grade, and he wants to do it on his own.

Let’s help Dima move freely!
