ROTARY SHARES A STEP


Project : ROTARY SHARES A STEP :
Operation Lakaw… Let’s Walk with New Hope


There are hundreds of people who don’t have a leg or both legs due to Accidents, Diabetes and other illnesses. Many of them are young, bread winners, and are potentials for employment if given a chance to walk again through prosthesis. This may help them gain more self confidence and become fruitful citizens.

However, due to poverty and lack of financial access, many cannot afford to have prosthesis.

Rotary Club of Mactan was able to find a local partner, the UPPGH Rehab Dept. to design a new project :
