The Challenge

Only 10% of amputees can afford prosthetics.

Studies show that only 10% of individuals who have lost limbs can afford prosthetic devices. With market prices exceeding RM5,000—and some reaching tens of thousands—prosthetics remain inaccessible for B40 families and asnaf communities.

Key challenges:

  • Prosthetic costs exceed RM5,000 - RM 50,000
  • Only 10% of those needing prosthetics can access them
  • Loss of ability to work and support families
  • Significant impact on mental health and dignity
