Independence for Shweta: communication tablet with eye tracking
Help Shweta get a communication tablet with eye tracking so She can attend work interviews.
🇮🇳 Hubballi, Karnataka, India1,230 views
I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Hubballi Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,200.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $1,200 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $1,100
• Fitting and training sessions: $30
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $40
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you and your family, Shweta. Get well soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Irapuato.
Thinking of you and your family, Shweta. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 26 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything. God bless
Sending strength, Shweta. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
Rooting for you, Shweta. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Sending love. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
