Independence for Eka: prosthetic leg

A prosthetic leg would give Eka independence - we're $850 away.

Jakarta Barat

Eka lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Jakarta Barat Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $850. Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Eka could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $850 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $60 • Delivery and set-up: $25 • prosthetic leg: $765 With deep gratitude, Agus
