Hannah needs a braille note-taker - help us make it happen
Hannah needs a braille note-taker that the health system won't fund; the cost is $6,750.
Anywhere in the world6,970 views
Hannah lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Tel Aviv Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,750.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Hannah 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 $6,750 goes:
• braille note-taker: $6,250
• Fitting and training sessions: $280
• Delivery and set-up: $110
• First-year servicing plan: $110
Thank you so much.
