Beatriz needs a braille note-taker - help us make it happen
Help Beatriz get a braille note-taker so She can go to school independently.
🇲🇽 Ciudad de México, Ciudad de México, Mexico2,432 views
Beatriz lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Ciudad de México Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,550.
Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Beatriz could go to school independently. 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 $1,550 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $55
• braille note-taker: $1,450
• Delivery and set-up: $45
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Take care. Hope the doctors have good news. Greetings from Nashik
hope it all works out. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Saket.
Praying for you, Andrés. Your post was clear and honest.
Sending good thoughts. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Fukuoka this morning. Love from Fukuoka.
Thinking of you and your family, Andrés. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
Hope you get there. Greetings from Sukkur.
So sorry you're going through this. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Dnipro so I could bring a meal. All the best
