Minh lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Nha Trang General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,450. Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment Minh could speak with the people around her. It would change everyday life for the whole family. We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,450 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $55 • braille note-taker: $1,350 • Delivery and set-up: $45 If you're reading this, thank you. - Hậu
