Ginevra needs a pair of hearing aids - help us make it happen
Help Ginevra get a pair of hearing aids so She can join the school sports day.
🇮🇹 Italy3,448 views
I live with muscular dystrophy. My occupational therapist at Milan 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 $3,550.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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 $3,550 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $145
• pair of hearing aids: $3,200
• Fitting and training sessions: $205
Thanks for reading all this.
