Geelong
I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the Geelong Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,850. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment I could speak with the people around him. 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 $2,850 goes: โ€ข prosthetic leg: $2,150 โ€ข Fitting and training sessions: $330 โ€ข Delivery and set-up: $185 โ€ข First-year servicing plan: $185 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Noah

  1. Update from Geelong: we've started the first stage. We're at 1% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 13% now ($372). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts.
