A cochlear implant processor upgrade for Svetlana: help Svetlana move freely

Svetlana lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at Yekaterinburg General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $200. Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Svetlana could go to school independently. 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 $200 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $60 • First-year servicing plan: $100 • Fitting and training sessions: $40 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Volodymyr
