Northwestern University Donation Fund Challenge

Northwestern University Donation Fund Challenge

Marita Dorsch Carozza,CP,FAAOP

To friends and alumni of Northwestern University:
Northwestern University’s Prosthetic Orthotic Center will be hosting a Gala
Fundraiser at the Hyatt Regency Hotel on Thursday evening, March 2nd during
the Academy’s Annual Meeting in Chicago.
A very wonderful and gracious offer has come to us through Ted and Loretta
Thranhardt, who contacted, Becker Orthopedic, Hanger Orthopedic Group,
Otto Bock and Ohio Willow Wood To Form The “ Northwestern University
Donation Fund Challenge”.
The above group has challenged all individuals and/or companies to make a
generous donation to NUPOC; they in turn will match the challenge to the sum of
$50,000.00.
Needless to say, this is a very significant contribution to the school.
This will allow us to develop the infrastructure and provide the faculty and
staff with the funding to bring Northwestern’s master’s and distance education
programs “on line” sooner than we were anticipating.
This generous gift also has an impact on you as well. It affects your
ability to enhance your education and extend your title for certification. It
allows you accomplish this in way that it will have minimal disruption to your
patient care and facility commitments.
I encourage all of you to please help us match this goal.
