Rani lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Bandung Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $600. Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Rani could join the school sports day. 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 $600 goes: • prosthetic leg: $490 • Fitting and training sessions: $45 • Delivery and set-up: $15 • First-year servicing plan: $50 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Budi
