Iwan needs a communication tablet with eye tracking - help us make it happen
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Iwan independence - we're $1,300 away.

I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the Jakarta Mobility Clinic 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 $1,300.
My current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $1,300 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $1,150
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• First-year servicing plan: $75
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
Updates from Iwan
Small update. $782 so far, we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($376 in total) I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

hang in there, Iwan. Wishing Iwan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Praying for you, Iwan. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care
Sending strength, Iwan. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
good luck. This could happen to any of us. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Suwon
