A communication tablet with eye tracking for Vitaly: help Vitaly move freely
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Vitaly independence - we're $750 away.

Vitaly lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Odesa 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 $750.
His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Vitaly could attend work interviews. 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $750 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $60
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $620
• Fitting and training sessions: $70
Thank you for reading my story.
