Mobility fund: pair of hearing aids for Tithi in Savar
Help Tithi get a pair of hearing aids so She can speak with the people around her.
🇧🇩 Savar, Dhaka, Bangladesh567 views
Tithi lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Savar General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $55.
Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment Tithi 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $55 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• First-year servicing plan: $30
• Fitting and training sessions: $5

You're not alone, Ruma. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Savar
Best of luck, Ruma. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
