Mobility fund: pair of hearing aids for Dennis in San Diego
Help Dennis get a pair of hearing aids so He can join the school sports day.
🇺🇸 California, United States3,830 views
Dennis lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the San Diego Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,550.
His current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Dennis could join the school sports day. 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 $4,550 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $3,900
• Fitting and training sessions: $250
• Delivery and set-up: $195
• First-year servicing plan: $205
Thank you for reading my story.

sending love. This could happen to any of us. After 21 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Iztapalapa.
stay strong, Bennett. Looking forward to the next update. I'll check back for the next update. God bless
Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Amiens but we're thinking of you. Thinking of San Diego.
good luck, Bennett. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Birmingham this morning
Sending good thoughts, Bennett. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. God bless.
stay strong, Bennett. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
