Michel needs a pair of hearing aids - help us make it happen
A pair of hearing aids would give Michel independence - we're $5,150 away.
🇫🇷 France3,764 views
Michel lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at Boulogne-Billancourt General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,150.
His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Michel could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $5,150 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $4,800
• Delivery and set-up: $135
• First-year servicing plan: $215
I hope life is good to you.
