Help Shaimaa Get a New Wheelchairs to Compete

Dear Supporters,

My name is Shaimaa Samy, a Paralympic athlete who has proudly represented my country in many international, world, and continental championships, winning over 65 medals.
My dream is to continue competing and qualify for the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games, to become the first Egyptian, Arab, and African female wheelchair athlete to reach this historic milestone.
For me, sport is not just an activity — it is the life I breathe.
It has given me strength, confidence, and transformed how I see myself and the world around me. I cannot imagine my future without it; it is my way to prove that determination can break barriers.

But my journey now faces a serious challenge:
My daily wheelchair, which I rely on for my everyday life and travels, has worn out after years of use and constant travel, making it more of a burden than a support.

My sports wheelchair, which I have been using for over 12 years, was damaged twice during air travel. It has become slow and heavy, and it no longer allows me to train or compete at the same level as other athletes who have modern, lighter, and faster chairs.

In addition, I need a special prosthetic device for my leg to train more efficiently and continue competing at my best, along with covering the cost of participating in an important international championship to improve my global ranking and pursue my dream of reaching the Paralympics.

That is why I have launched this campaign to raise $20,000 in 45 days to purchase a new sports wheelchair, a specialized prosthetic device, and to cover the costs of participating in the championship.

Every contribution you make, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to my goal.
By supporting this campaign, you are not just helping an athlete — you are supporting a story of perseverance and hope for everyone facing challenges.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support and trust.
Together, we can turn this challenge into a new beginning and write an inspiring chapter of determination and success.
