Independence for Gili: braille note-taker
A braille note-taker would give Gili independence - we're $2,550 away.
🇮🇱 Israel1,580 views
Gili lives with multiple sclerosis. 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 $2,550.
Her current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Gili could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $2,550 goes:
• braille note-taker: $2,000
• Fitting and training sessions: $320
• First-year servicing plan: $230
Thank you for reading my story.

So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 23 people at work. Thinking of Tel Aviv.
wishing you the best, Hadas. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Nuremberg but we're thinking of you. Love from Nuremberg.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Coyoacán so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
