Restoring Mobility and Hope with Nkolo Orthopedics Project
In a life-changing partnership with Nkolo Orthopedics, Taasa Children Relief provided prosthetic legs to amputees in Panganyara Village, Kotido District, Karamoja region. A total of 15 individuals, including both children and adults, benefited from this initiative. Each prosthetic leg cost approximately $1,000 (about UGX 4 million).
One of the beneficiaries, Mr. Adukku Michael, lost his leg during a period of insecurity and had been using crutches for many years. Upon receiving his prosthetic leg, there was immense joy and jubilation as he was able to walk again independently.
This initiative is not only about restoring mobility—it is about restoring dignity, independence, and opportunity to those who need it most. Every step taken is a testament to the power of compassion and collaboration.
