#ProstheticsForLife

Let's make sure that every child amputee can have access to prosthetic limbs and embrace life again.

Thousands of children around the world are losing limbs to war, natural disasters, accidents or diseases. But, in many countries, they get little or no support at all.

That is why we have launched #ProstheticsForLife, a campaign to ensure that every child amputee gets the chance to run, play and live life to the fullest.

The difference you can make

Prabin, 6, was born without the lower part of his leg. The first years of his life were difficult for his family. They loved their little boy, but the community wasn’t very accepting of children with disabilities.

When the family first visited our partner rehabilitation centre CBR Biratnagar in Nepal, Prabin was just one and a half. Since that first visit, we’ve been able to provide him with 5 different prosthesis as he’s been growing older. Now, when he sees a football, he can’t keep calm!

“It was a wonderful change in our little boy,” his mother explains. “He accepted his leg right away and just began playing, running and even jumping like any other child of his age.”
