Duque de Caxias

I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at Duque de Caxias 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 $1,050. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $1,050 goes: • pair of hearing aids: $860 • Fitting and training sessions: $45 • Delivery and set-up: $35 • First-year servicing plan: $110 Every share and every dollar helps. - Flávio

We're at 18% thanks to 7 of you. I made the first payment toward first-year servicing plan. More news soon.

Praying for you, Flávio. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Latina but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
