Technology has come a long way to enable amputees.
Most young South Africans living with amputation are limited more by health policies and the high cost of prosthetic equipment than by their actual physical ability. At Jumping Kids, the dream is to provide affordable prosthetic solutions geared for optimum results while boosting awareness and advocating for change. It is not enough to merely fit a child with a prosthetic. We believe access to the equipment should translate into access to better education and sport. This is achieved by following a multi-disciplinary approach to ensure the children’s long-term reintegration as valuable members of society.
