A braille note-taker for Yash: help me move freely
Help Yash get a braille note-taker so He can join the school sports day.
🇮🇳 Amritsar, Punjab, India887 views
I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Amritsar Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,200.
My current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $1,200 goes:
• braille note-taker: $1,050
• Fitting and training sessions: $60
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $60
With deep gratitude,
Yash
