Independence for Yoav: specialist standing frame
A specialist standing frame would give Yoav independence - we're $5,250 away.
🇮🇱 Haifa, Haifa, Israel6,203 views
Yoav lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at Haifa General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,250.
His current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Yoav 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 $5,250 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $4,900
• Fitting and training sessions: $290
• Delivery and set-up: $60
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck, Dana. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Iztapalapa but we're thinking of you.
stay strong, Dana. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
