Dipa lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at the Bhaktapur Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $500. Her current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Dipa 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $500 goes: โ€ข Delivery and set-up: $15 โ€ข First-year servicing plan: $25 โ€ข braille note-taker: $460 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Deepak
