Enrique needs a prosthetic leg - help us make it happen
Help Enrique get a prosthetic leg so He can attend work interviews.
🇲🇽 Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico1,649 views
Enrique lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the Mérida Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,150.
His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment Enrique 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 $3,150 goes:
• prosthetic leg: $3,050
• First-year servicing plan: $80
• Delivery and set-up: $20
I hope life is good to you.

Wishing you peace, Miguel. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Half-Way Tree.
Hope it all works out, Miguel. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
Good luck, Miguel. Get well soon. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Nashik.
Sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Cluj-Napoca
keep going, Miguel. Hope the doctors have good news. After 18 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
