A braille note-taker for Samuel: help me move freely

I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the São Paulo Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,250. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment I could speak with the people around him. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home. 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 $1,250 goes: • braille note-taker: $1,050 • Fitting and training sessions: $100 • Delivery and set-up: $45 • First-year servicing plan: $55 Thanks for reading all this. - Samuel
