Mobility fund: cochlear implant processor upgrade for Jamal in Riyadh
Jamal needs a cochlear implant processor upgrade that the health system won't fund; the cost is $2,850.

Jamal lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at Riyadh General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,850.
His current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Jamal could go to school independently. 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 $2,850 goes:
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $2,500
• Delivery and set-up: $125
• Fitting and training sessions: $225
I hope life is good to you.
