🇧🇷 São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil1,034 views
I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the São Paulo Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,200.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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 $1,200 goes:
• braille note-taker: $930
• Fitting and training sessions: $90
• Delivery and set-up: $35
• First-year servicing plan: $145
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
