Mobility fund: pair of hearing aids for Mi-young in Seoul
A pair of hearing aids would give Mi-young independence - we're $5,250 away.

Mi-young lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Seoul Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,250.
Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Mi-young could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $5,250 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $4,900
• Fitting and training sessions: $150
• Delivery and set-up: $50
• First-year servicing plan: $150
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
