Mobility fund: braille note-taker for Lauren in Anaheim
Help Lauren get a braille note-taker so She can join the school sports day.
🇺🇸 California, United States2,259 views
I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Anaheim 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 $3,450.
My current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 8 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $3,450 goes:
• braille note-taker: $2,850
• Fitting and training sessions: $290
• Delivery and set-up: $110
• First-year servicing plan: $200

Wishing you peace, Lauren. This could happen to any of us. I hope May is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. I hope May is when things finally get easier. God bless.
Thinking of you, Lauren. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
