Olumide lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Ikeja Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $700.
His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 10 weeks.
With the right equipment Olumide could speak with the people around him. 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 $700 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $610
• Fitting and training sessions: $45
• Delivery and set-up: $10
• First-year servicing plan: $35
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Olumide
Communication tablet with eye tracking is $610 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Happy to explain more.
Hang in there, Nkechi. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Ikeja
Hang in there, Nkechi. Hope this works out for you. God bless
You're not alone, Nkechi. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
