Independence for Vida: braille note-taker
Help Vida get a braille note-taker so She can go to school independently.
🇬🇭 Ghana420 views
Vida lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the Madina 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 $400.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment Vida could go to school independently. 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 $400 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $35
• First-year servicing plan: $50
• braille note-taker: $315
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

You're not alone. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 26 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Ciudad de México
