Wheel Chair Elevator for Alvaro's Kids
Donation protected
Alvaro has three kids in wheelchairs due to Ataxia, a degenerative disease. They live in a two story house near Antigua, Guatemala. The children live upstairs while the bathroom and dining room is down stairs. That was not a problem when the children were little but now they are 18, 20, and 22.
Alvaro and his wife Lucky, carry the children up and down stairs three times a day.When Alvaro is at work, Spanish teacher,Lucky does I mcarrying. Lately, Lucky has developed a spinal disease so each trip causes more damage. Alvaro asked for help from the goverment's handicapped agency but because he owns his own modest home, he was turned down for all assistance. Alvaro can make about $100 a week if all his classes are full. That barely pays the bills, sometimes.
Alvaro wants to build an elevator, more of a lift, in his home. It will cost about $2000 to have it made and installed.
Please help Alvaro and his family out with this Go Fund Me request.
