Independence for Atim: prosthetic leg

I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Nairobi Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,450. My current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 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 $1,450 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $50 • First-year servicing plan: $35 • prosthetic leg: $1,365 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Atim
