Mobility fund: prosthetic leg for Yash in Noida
Help Yash get a prosthetic leg so He can join the school sports day.
🇮🇳 India407 views
Yash lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the Noida Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,450.
His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Yash 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 $1,450 goes:
• prosthetic leg: $1,350
• Fitting and training sessions: $15
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $70
Thanks for being kind about this.

rooting for you, Deepa. Hope the doctors have good news.
Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Noida.
you're not alone, Deepa. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Kasarani
Sending love, Deepa. Wishing Yash a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
