Kyiv
I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at Kyiv General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,450. My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $1,450 goes: • braille note-taker: $1,350 • Fitting and training sessions: $40 • Delivery and set-up: $60 Thank you for reading my story.
