Araba lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Takoradi General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100. Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Araba 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 $100 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $15 • Fitting and training sessions: $40 • First-year servicing plan: $45 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
