Kato needs a specialist standing frame - help us make it happen

A specialist standing frame would give Kato independence - we're $100 away.

Kato lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Nairobi General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100. His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Kato 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 $100 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $25 • Fitting and training sessions: $50 • First-year servicing plan: $25 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Rose

  • You're not alone, Rose. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Hamilton but we're thinking of you.
