Mobility fund: pair of hearing aids for Tammy in Oakland

Tammy lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Oakland 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 $7,200. Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks. With the right equipment Tammy could speak with the people around her. 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 $7,200 goes: • pair of hearing aids: $6,500 • Fitting and training sessions: $330 • Delivery and set-up: $125 • First-year servicing plan: $245 Thank you for reading my story. - Tyler
