Mobility fund: pair of hearing aids for Romane in Metz

A pair of hearing aids would give Romane independence - we're $3,050 away.

I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Metz Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,050. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $3,050 goes: • pair of hearing aids: $2,500 • Fitting and training sessions: $145 • Delivery and set-up: $175 • First-year servicing plan: $230 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Romane
