Mobility fund: braille note-taker for Caroline in Corpus Christi
Help Caroline get a braille note-taker so She can get to the shops and visit friends.
🇺🇸 Corpus Christi, Texas, United States2,919 views
Caroline lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at the Corpus Christi Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,650.
Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Caroline 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $3,650 goes:
• braille note-taker: $3,000
• First-year servicing plan: $280
• Fitting and training sessions: $370
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
