A Leg To Stand On

ALTSO provides free, high-quality prosthetic limbs, orthotic devices, and appropriately fitted wheelchairs to children with limb disabilities in developing countries, giving them access to education, future employment, and self-sufficiency.

Since 2003, our programs in Asia, Africa, and Latin America have provided free orthopedic care to nearly 20,000 children whose families, surviving on an average of less than $3/day, could otherwise not afford care.
