Kasarani
I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Kasarani Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $150. My current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $150 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $30 • Fitting and training sessions: $55 • First-year servicing plan: $65 Glad we found this place. - Akoth
