Donate Medical Equipment

Although the weather did not cooperate with our efforts to collect recycled prosthetics at Harbor Park in Norfolk on Sunday, donations still came in, and publicity from the event was valuable in raising awareness about the importance of recycling prosthetics. The Walking Free Program and its partners were able to educate the public about the lack of amputee care in developing countries and the efforts to train prosthetists, orthotists, and physical therapists in resource-poor areas of the world. Receiving a limb and gaining the ability to walk independently is a life-changing event for someone who has lost a limb to injury, war, or disease. Thank you to all who assisted the Walking Free program in their efforts to help those in need!
