Maria needs a pair of hearing aids - help us make it happen
Maria needs a pair of hearing aids that the health system won't fund; the cost is $1,250.
🇺🇦 Ukraine1,208 views
Maria lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Zaporizhzhia Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,250.
Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Maria 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 $1,250 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $1,150
• Fitting and training sessions: $35
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $50
Every share and every dollar helps.
