Lena needs a prosthetic leg - help us make it happen

A prosthetic leg would give Lena independence - we are $3,050 away.

Lena lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at Hannover General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,050. Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Lena 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $3,050 goes: • prosthetic leg: $2,650 • First-year servicing plan: $250 • Delivery and set-up: $150 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
