Independence for Tamanna: pair of hearing aids
A pair of hearing aids would give Tamanna independence - we're $700 away.
🇧🇩 Bangladesh1,070 views
Tamanna lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at Gazipur General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $700.
Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Tamanna 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 $700 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $630
• Fitting and training sessions: $45
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• First-year servicing plan: $5
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Gazipur.
Sending love, Rafiq. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Gazipur.
