Aarav lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the Mumbai Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $700. His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Aarav could join the school sports day. 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 $700 goes: • prosthetic leg: $610 • Fitting and training sessions: $35 • Delivery and set-up: $30 • First-year servicing plan: $25 If you're reading this, thank you. - Abhishek
