Kübra lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at Eindhoven General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,450. Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Kübra could attend work interviews. 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 $6,450 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $5,750 • Fitting and training sessions: $220 • Delivery and set-up: $150 • First-year servicing plan: $330 Thanks for being kind about this.
