Phúc needs a prosthetic leg - help us make it happen
A prosthetic leg would give Phúc independence - we're $1,400 away.

I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Hồ Chí Minh City Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,400.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $1,400 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $45
• prosthetic leg: $1,300
• First-year servicing plan: $55
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

praying for you, Phúc. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Buenos Aires so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Hồ Chí Minh City.
Thanks for sharing this. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Radom!
