Independence for Allan: pair of hearing aids
A pair of hearing aids would give Allan independence - we're $1,550 away.
🇵🇭 Philippines588 views
I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at Mandaue 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 $1,550.
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 go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $1,550 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $1,450
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
• Delivery and set-up: $10
• First-year servicing plan: $35
Glad we found this place.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Allan?
Thank you. If you're in Mandaue I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
Sending love. Wishing Allan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. God bless.
Praying for you, Allan. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Mandaue
stay strong, Allan. Shared it with a few friends.
Hope it all works out, Allan. I hope things turn around soon. After 9 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
sending strength, Allan. Hope the doctors have good news. Take care!
