Recevoir un iPhone : briser l'isolement et gagner de l'autonomie

Lors de sa soirée VIP TechnoVision, la Fondation INCA a remis à Mme Sylain un iPhone pour lui permettre de faciliter ses activités quotidiennes. Quelques semaines à peine après l'avoir reçu, son nouveau téléphone lui permet d'écrire des messages et des textes beaucoup plus facilement, de s'informer sur les conditions météorologiques, de faire sa liste d'épicerie et surtout de communiquer avec son entourage. Avant, elle se sentait plus isolée, surtout qu'elle vit dans une région éloignée.
