Independence for Ikenna: communication tablet with eye tracking
Help Ikenna get a communication tablet with eye tracking so He can speak with the people around him.
🇳🇬 Badagry, Lagos, Nigeria566 views
Ikenna lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Badagry Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $700.
His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Ikenna could speak with the people around him. 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $700 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $630
• First-year servicing plan: $55
• Fitting and training sessions: $15
Thank you so much.
