For some time we have been donating used orthotic and prosthetic
devices, components and occasionally materials to the World
Rehabilitation Fund in New York. From my understanding the World Rehab
Fund sorted though the products and sent them to third world countries.
We received a letter stating that they no longer are accepting materials
and in fact refused the last shipment.
Does anyone know of any organizations that will accept these types of
materials? If so please pass that information along. It troubles us to
think these items won't put to some greater good and will have to be
discarded.
Thank you,
Chris Casteel, RTO
