Frank needs a braille note-taker - help us make it happen
Help Frank get a braille note-taker so He can join the school sports day.
🇺🇸 United States5,364 views
Frank lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at Rochester General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,650.
His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Frank could join the school sports day. 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 $6,650 goes:
• braille note-taker: $6,000
• Fitting and training sessions: $160
• Delivery and set-up: $120
• First-year servicing plan: $370
If you're reading this, thank you.

Best of luck, Levi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Hope things get better soon, Levi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Levi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
sending good thoughts, Levi. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Ribeirão Preto but we're thinking of you. Take care.
