Help Us Help 5 Children to Walk & Play Again!

First step: work with us to raise awareness and funding.

Second step – Jordan: your support will enable us to launch our pilot this year to serve 5 children with 3D-printed prostheses. ($180,000 USD)

By starting a fundraiser, you will play a crucial role in transforming the lives of five children in a pilot in Jordan that we can expand to serve even more children in Gaza. Your support will help provide these children with custom 3D-printed below the knee prostheses, enabling them to walk, play, and enjoy their childhood once again. Every dollar raised through your efforts will contribute to the creation of life-changing prosthetic limbs, giving these children the mobility and independence they deserve.

8,000 people are estimated to need a prosthetic solution in Gaza.

Only 11 doctors trained as prosthetists remain

All rehabilitation clinics were destroyed

The ‘Step by Step’ pilot project will deploy 3D scanning and printing technology to provide 5 children with a prostheses to walk and play again.

With only 11 Doctors trained as a prosthesis remaining in Gaza, the “Step by Step” pilot is partnering with Bionic P&O experts to:

  • Redesign a part our Jordan office into a new prosthetic clinic.
  • Hire a prosthetist, 3D technician and a project manager.
  • Train the prosthetist and 3D technician on-site.
  • Use 3D scanning  and printing for custom prosthetic sockets.
  • Pilot care and techniques for five children in Jordan.
  • Integrate physiotherapy and psychosocial support in the care model.
 
Future Big Step – Scaling to Gaza: (Next Fundraising Round)
  • Create a scalable model to aid INGOs and health partners in the region.
  • Expand to serve 50 children in Gaza with holistic lower limb prosthetic care.
  • Begin to train staff in Gaza how to 3D scan the child’s residual limb.
  • Finalize an MOU with potential implementing NGOs partners in Gaza.
  • Ensure approval from the COGATE authorities to ship all the components into Gaza.
