Just recently returned from Haiti and was very impressed with the facilities that Mission of Hope and Chase Brown have organized and cultivated. They have done an amazing job at creating a very functional O and P lab to optimize your practitioner skills while in a third world country.
As with most non-profit there were some things that would be greatly appreciated.
I promised the prosthetic liaison I would post a wish list for the Mission of Hope
Any endoskeletal componentry
Any PEDIATRIC componentry
A-P or M-L Slide adapters
Mighty Mite plates
Male and Female 4 hole adapter
Rotatable male/female adapters
Pediatric Suspension Sleeves!!!
Pediatric Tess Belts
Socks
Feet
Knees
P-Cell
Single Ply socks
Pipe Cutter Blades
1/8” Poly Eth
Any contributions you make would have an enormous impact on the functional outcomes for a population in dire need. You can mail your donated materials to my address below or directly to the Mission Of Hope liaison:
