Mobility fund: prosthetic leg for Ali in Cairo
Help Ali get a prosthetic leg so He can get to the shops and visit friends.
🇪🇬 Cairo, Egypt667 views
I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at Cairo General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,200.
My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home.
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 $1,200 goes:
• prosthetic leg: $1,050
• Fitting and training sessions: $60
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $60

Thinking of you. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
