We are solving Josef's critical need by funding three months of specialized, intensive rehabilitation ($6,750 USD) at a dedicated military injury center. This structured program is the crucial first step. It involves healing, scar management, rigorous stump shaping, and core muscle strengthening. This specialized prep is essential for a successful prosthetic fitting. Your donation directly ensures Josef's body is physically ready to walk and empowers him to regain mobility and independence.
Funding Josef's rehabilitation creates an impact that extends far beyond one person. Long-term, this project enables Josef to receive prosthetics and become fully mobile and independent again. His ultimate mission is to return to the army as a skilled drone operator, supporting his unit from the rear. His powerful story of resilience, a Slovenian volunteer regaining his life and mission, will inspire countless wounded servicemen and volunteers across Ukraine and the world.
