Asher lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the London Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,300. His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment Asher could attend work interviews. It would change everyday life for the whole family. 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 $6,300 goes: • prosthetic leg: $5,750 • Fitting and training sessions: $290 • Delivery and set-up: $110 • First-year servicing plan: $150 If you're reading this, thank you. - Savannah

  • Shared it with a few friends. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Salerno.
