Mobility fund: braille note-taker for Sade in Epe
Sade needs a braille note-taker that the health system won't fund; the cost is $100.
🇳🇬 Nigeria803 views
Sade lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at Epe General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Sade 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 $100 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $30
• Fitting and training sessions: $45
Thanks for being kind about this.

Take care, Kingsley. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Kasarani.
Hope things get better soon, Kingsley. Hope this works out for you. God bless.
You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
You're not alone, Kingsley. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Kyiv so I could bring a meal. All the best
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up. Take care.
