Élodie lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Reims General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,850. Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment Élodie could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $3,850 goes: • communication tablet with eye tracking: $3,400 • Fitting and training sessions: $210 • First-year servicing plan: $240 Thank you so much.
