Nan lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at Savannah 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 $2,900. His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Nan 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 $2,900 goes: • pair of hearing aids: $2,250 • Fitting and training sessions: $260 • Delivery and set-up: $185 • First-year servicing plan: $205 Thank you so much.
