Atieno needs a communication tablet with eye tracking - help us make it happen
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Atieno independence - we're $450 away.
🇰🇪 Kenya1,916 views
Atieno lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Likoni General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $450.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 10 weeks.
With the right equipment Atieno 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $450 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $50
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $360
• First-year servicing plan: $40
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Good news. Because of your gifts ($196 in total) I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
