Today, 30 children in Syria are waiting for a prosthetic—each one hoping for the chance to walk, play, and regain a sense of normalcy after losing a limb to the remnants of conflict. Through 3DP4ME’s work with the Syrian American Medical Society and the Ministry of Health at Ibn Al Nafees Hospital in Damascus, we provide custom, 3D-printed prosthetics at a cost of $1,500 per child, with a goal of raising $45,000 to reach them. To date, 28 children have been fitted, with 5 more currently in process.
We are deeply grateful for the support that has made this work possible.
