PROJECT ROTARY: SHARE A STEP
Operation Lakaw… Let’s Walk with New Hope

There are hundreds of people who lost 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.
