Mobility fund: cochlear implant processor upgrade for Lourdes in Iztapalapa

Lourdes lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at Iztapalapa General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,300. Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks. With the right equipment Lourdes 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,300 goes: • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $1,100 • Fitting and training sessions: $75 • Delivery and set-up: $55 • First-year servicing plan: $70 Every share and every dollar helps.
