Bekasi
Satria lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at Bekasi General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000. His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment Satria could attend work interviews. 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 $1,000 goes: • prosthetic leg: $880 • Fitting and training sessions: $50 • Delivery and set-up: $30 • First-year servicing plan: $40 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Wishing you the best, Bambang. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 20 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Riyadh.
