Anisa needs a pair of hearing aids - help us make it happen
Anisa needs a pair of hearing aids that the health system won't fund; the cost is $100.

I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at Depok General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $100 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $50
• Fitting and training sessions: $25
• Delivery and set-up: $25
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Update from Depok: I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. We're at 45% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

rooting for you. Wishing Anisa a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Depok
