Love and affection are things every parent can provide. A prosthesis is something every parent can't.

The cost of prostheses can be a daunting figure. Depending on age, diagnosis and access to medical support — providing a prosthetic device for a child can cost between $10,000 and $50,000 annually and having insurance doesn’t guarantee access to the prostheses they need. Activity limbs and frequent replacement expenses are financial burdens many families simply cannot afford.

 

JTF Provides access to fundamental needs, something every child deserves.

  • Primary prosthesis (limbs that can be worn daily for normal activities) can cost $10,000-$50,000
  • Activity prosthesis are needed to run, swim and play sports but insurance companies do not cover this additional expense
  • Kids outgrow their prostheses, on average, every 18-24 months, but that could be even more often during growth spurts
