Mobility fund: braille note-taker for Ali in Medina
Help Ali get a braille note-taker so He can go to school independently.
🇸🇦 Medina, Madinah, Saudi Arabia3,830 views
I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Medina Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,100.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $2,100 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $40
• braille note-taker: $1,950
• First-year servicing plan: $110
If you're reading this, thank you.

You're not alone, Ali. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
Sending love. Hope the doctors have good news. Love from Quezon City.
Good luck. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Mumbai donated after I showed her your page. All the best
