Springfield
I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Springfield Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $700. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $700 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $75 • First-year servicing plan: $340 • Fitting and training sessions: $285 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Rylee
