Mobility fund: braille note-taker for Javier in Cali

Javier lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Cali Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $200. His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Javier could join the school sports day. 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $200 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $95 • Fitting and training sessions: $65 • Delivery and set-up: $40 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Patricia
