A prosthetic leg for Adriana: help me move freely
A prosthetic leg would give Adriana independence - we're $1,000 away.

I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Santa Fe Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000.
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 speak with the people around her. 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 $1,000 goes:
• prosthetic leg: $860
• Fitting and training sessions: $50
• Delivery and set-up: $45
• First-year servicing plan: $45
Every share and every dollar helps.
