Istanbul
I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Istanbul Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,750. My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $1,750 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $50 • pair of hearing aids: $1,650 • Fitting and training sessions: $50 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Nur
