Thanks to you, an electric wheelchair was purchased for the wards of PNI in Peterhof!

Perspektivi

Foundation St. Petersburg

We are pleased to announce that in 2022 we successfully purchased an Observer 1 "Standard" electric wheelchair cheaper than expected. The funds received were used to purchase technical equipment that helps adults with multiple developmental disabilities from Psychoneurological Boarding School No. 3 (Peterhof) learn necessary skills, making them more mobile and independent, both within and outside the boarding school. We thank everyone who participated in the fundraising for the purchase of this technical equipment and report that the new wheelchair helps our wards confidently handle the wheelchair. In addition to wheelchair classes, our wards also visit the AFC instructor's office. Passive gymnastics techniques, stretching, fitness approach elements, and mobile games are used during classes. This helps our wards confidently handle the wheelchair. Our APE specialist holds about 30 classes per month with 8 different wards from the boarding school. For example, our ward Gennady learned to use an electric wheelchair so well that he went to the city on it independently, overcoming all the difficulties associated with riding on a train, metro, and roadway!

Report

Campaign information

We are fundraising to buy an electric wheelchair!

Often our clients from psycho-neurological residential institutions who do not walk independently encounter refusal on the part of the state to provide electric wheelchairs. In order to receive a wheelchair of this type, the children need to prove that they can operate the vehicle independently and do so confidently and safely. But since they have no experience in interacting with such wheelchairs, the skill is not formed. A kind of vicious circle is created. In order for Perspektiv's charges from the boarding school to qualify for personal technical means of rehabilitation, the team of the organization found a specialist who will help the children daily to develop the skill of operating the wheelchair. Now all that is left is to purchase a power wheelchair for daily training and pay for the expert's work, which requires money. Thanks to the collected funds, adults with multiple disabilities from the Psychoneurological boarding school #3 (Peterhof) will learn the necessary skills and gain one more piece of independence - they will be able to move around more freely. In addition, the children will have the opportunity to rent a stroller for a walk, to use it for trips into the city accompanied by a teacher, or for walks to the lake. This will expand the boundaries of their world - and make life for people with severe disabilities a little closer to the normal, familiar to all of us. Please support the kids in their endeavor. The fee includes the cost of a power wheelchair and a month's pay for an instructor who will work with our charges.
