I'm trying to help a friend to raise some money that will allow him to buy new hearing aids. I didn't start the campaign, another friend did it, and you can find his message here below. Please, click here if you'd like to open the page with the campaign and make a donation. Every single dollar counts. Thank you very much for your support.
I am creating a campaign to raise money for my friend Skillet. Yesterday his dog managed to get ahold of one of his hearing aids and chewed it. Its not repairable. He got both hearing aids 2 years ago with a disability grant, but he's not eligable for another one for almost 2 more years. The total cost of ONE replacement with the fitting fees is almost $5000. He has one functional one, but it effects his balance and ability to do most normal things like walk and talk to his family. He's being treated for Chronic Heart disease and has had a few heart attacks. So he has no ability to replace the aid himself. He hates asking for help, so as his friend, i'm doing this for him. The hearing aid is an Audible Anthem XL with starkey molded ear buds and a 70 gain amplifier. If this wasn't a neccesity, I wouldnt be asking to help him. Anything you can contibute will be very appreciated.
