Mobility fund: pair of hearing aids for Bereket in Addis Ababa
A pair of hearing aids would give Bereket independence - we're $1,010 away.
🇪🇹 Addis Ababa, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia701 views
Bereket lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at Addis Ababa General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,010.
His current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Bereket 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 $1,010 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $960
• Fitting and training sessions: $45
• Delivery and set-up: $5
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
