Variety SA Featured Grant - Maya
Maya is 7 years old and lives with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. She is able to walk short distances independently but fatigues easily and requires mobility support. She has shown great progress in her development over time, but still suffers from spasticity in her legs. Variety supported the family by granting $63,445 for life changing surgery in St Louis which will have a life long impact on her mobility and overall wellbeing. Without this surgery, Maya will require the use of a wheelchair or other mobility equipment for the rest of her life.
