Give a hand to Miss Tatu. Literally.

My niece, Tatu Juma Sawaki (pictured), is asking for your help. Tatu needs arms and hands. That November 23rd, 2012 day, about six months ago, she was involved in a car accident in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, East Africa. Tatu lost both arms in the accident.



Life for Miss Tatu has never been the same. Everyday things we do not even think about, such as, going to bathroom, brushing teeth, eating, or changing clothes, have become impossible without a helping hand of family member.

After online searching, we identified Bebionic as the synthetic arms suited for Miss Tatu. South Africa is the nearest location where Bebionic arms are available. Tatu, together with me, her aunt and guardian, will have to travel and stay for two weeks in South Africa. The total estimated costs for Tatu to be fitted with the prosthetic arms is $36,000.00.

The video in the following link shows the kind of hands we want to help Miss Tatu with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qUPnnROxvY

So far we are short from the target while fundraising offline. We therefore, request your contribution towards the remaining $35,375.




Thank you in advance.
