I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at Kaduna General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100. My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $100 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $20 • Fitting and training sessions: $45 • Delivery and set-up: $35 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Ronke
