Report

It was made specifically for her — tailored to her measurements and the way she moves. The wheelchair was adjusted so that she can sit comfortably and control it easily.

An active wheelchair gives Amira the ability to move more independently and rely less on adult assistance in everyday life.

Amira will soon start school, and this is where the wheelchair will be especially important. It will help her move around the building on her own, get to her classroom, and take part in breaks and school activities alongside other children.

Thank you to the Tooba users who supported the fundraiser. Because of you, Amira now has the opportunity to move independently and be more self-reliant.

About the campaign

Amira with SMA needs an active wheelchair to start school

Amira is 5 years old. She’s a very sociable and curious girl. She’s writing her first children’s book (and illustrating it herself!), solves problems using an abacus, loves reading, and has friends all across Russia — from the north to the south.

Amira has SMA. She can walk, but only for short distances, and she can’t manage stairs without her mom’s help. Outdoors, she gets around on her raft bike — it’s fun and convenient. But school is just around the corner, and a bike won’t be much help there.

To feel confident and independent at school, Amira really needs an active wheelchair — lightweight and easy to maneuver. It will help her move around the hallways, get to her classroom on her own, take part in recess and school activities just like other kids. It will help her stay energized and not rely on constant adult assistance.

An active wheelchair is not just a way to get around — it’s an important step toward independence. Let’s help Amira start this new chapter — her school life — with confidence!
