The Florida O&P Outreach Team (FOOT Foundation) completed another trip to Guatemala on September 22, 2012. More than 40 children were fit with much needed orthoses and prostheses.

From our most recent trip, as well as previous trips, we’ve learned some valuable lessons about how to approach this type of humanitarian endeavor.
