Mission
The organization's exempt purpose is to improve access to essential trauma and orthopaedic care for poor and vulnerable populations in underserved and resource-limited settings. It advances this mission by supporting healthcare providers and health systems through the development and charitable distribution of affordable medical technologies; providing clinical training and capacity-building programs; and disseminating multilingual educational resources to strengthen the quality and availability of life-saving and disability-preventing care. The organization works in partnership with hospitals, clinicians, and public health institutions to expand access to appropriate treatment for patients who would otherwise lack such care.
