Once again we would like to thank the OANDP-L and the many subscribers in replying to the below request.
We were fortunate to have Cascade Orthotics inspire UPS in donating the shipping charges of components to Kenya,East Africa.
Thank you also goes to Wayne Konuik,CP owner of San Francisco O&P and Barr Foundation director, for graciously providing the components and tracking oversight.

Thank you all for your input and suggestions.
Tony

Subject: Suggestions requested in shipping donated components to Kenya East Africa


The Barr Foundation seeks assistance from subscribers in shipmet of a 8lb. box of a/k prosthetic components to a prosthetist in Kenya East Africa c/o the District Medical Minister of Health Uasin Gishu District.
UPS charges will cost close to $300.00 even though our organization is a non for profit.
Northwest Airlines and Kenya Airways have a code sharing partnership but it wil take weeks to get approval.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.The applicant has been deemed qualified and has a sponsoring prosthetist to fabricate the socket and assemble and align the components.
