Independence for Mustafa: prosthetic leg
Mustafa needs a prosthetic leg that the health system won't fund; the cost is $2,600.

Mustafa lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at İzmir General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,600.
His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Mustafa could go to school independently. 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 $2,600 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $50
• prosthetic leg: $2,500
• Fitting and training sessions: $50
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
