The Story
The Journey
Financials
Meet little Dané, who has become a Jumping Kids beneficiary. This is after her parents reached out for prosthetic support and rehabilitative guidance. Thanks to The Star Foundation, Dané is now taking her first steps toward a brighter future.
1 year old Dané was born with a missing lower limb on her right side – a congenital condition that developed in the womb. Since being fitted with her first prosthetic limb, Dané is thriving and hitting all the milestones of a toddler. From overcoming early developmental challenges to progressing at the same level as her peers, this little girl is mastering the art of being a toddler, one step at a time.
Assisting children born with physical challenges as early as possible helps them adapt seamlessly to their prosthetic equipment. This means they can focus on what truly matters – embracing all the fun, joy and wonder of childhood with confidence and ease.
It’s essential for little Dané to remain part of the Jumping Kids initiative, ensuring her prosthesis is regularly updated and maintained as she grows. This ongoing support is crucial for her development.
