Nipa needs a braille note-taker - help us make it happen
Help Nipa get a braille note-taker so She can go to school independently.
Anywhere in the world313 views
I live with muscular dystrophy. My occupational therapist at the Gazipur Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 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 $100 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $30
• Fitting and training sessions: $30
• Delivery and set-up: $40
Thanks for being kind about this.
