OPAF FEATURED IN JUNE ISSUE OF “NONPROFIT LEADER
Washington, DC - The Orthotic and Prosthetic Assistance Fund, Inc.
(OPAF), the official philanthropy of the U.S. orthotics and prosthetics
community, is featured in the June issue of “Nonprofit Leader”
<URL Redacted>.
Caldwell & Associates, Inc. <URL Redacted>, an
international management consulting and training firm, publishes
Nonprofit Leader, the nation's #1 nonprofit sector newsletter
http://www.nonprofitleader.org . With a circulation of 15,000 individuals
and 75,000 hits per month, the monthly online newsletter showcases

OPAF is a 501(c)(3) public charity established in 1995 by the Orthotic
and Prosthetic National Office. Dedicated initially to providing
financial and in-kind support to the 1996 Paralympics, OPAF now
generates its own initiatives through partnerships with individuals,
organizations and institutions engaged in raising public awareness of
disability and improving the quality of rehabilitation medicine, science
and technology.
As a community-focused nonprofit organization, OPAF aims primarily to
enable individuals with physical disabilities-especially those served by
members of the orthotics and prosthetics community-to enjoy the rewards
of personal achievement, physical fitness, and social interaction.
All contributions to OPAF are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of
U.S. law, and annual sponsorships of OPAF, its programs, and its
fundraisers are available to every individual, institution, and company
inside and beyond the O&P community. For more information about
