Angelica needs a braille note-taker - help us make it happen
A braille note-taker would give Angelica independence - we're $600 away.
🇵🇭 Philippines1,526 views
I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Bacolod Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $600.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 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 $600 goes:
• braille note-taker: $500
• Fitting and training sessions: $20
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $50
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Angelica
Sending strength. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. Take care!
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Fez so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
Rooting for you, Angelica. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Iztapalapa
Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
