Help Rashid get a pair of hearing aids so He can go to school independently.

I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at Lahore General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $550.
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 go to school independently. 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 $550 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $430
• Fitting and training sessions: $45
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $50
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending good thoughts, Rashid. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Lahore
Keep going, Rashid. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 8 people at work.
Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Thinking of you, Rashid. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best.
sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Love from 6th of October City
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Laredo but we're thinking of you.
I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best!
Get well soon. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
Best of luck, Rashid. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Birmingham
keep going, Rashid. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in St. Petersburg this morning. Thinking of Lahore.
