Donate Your *United Airlines Miles* Now to Help the People of Micronesia
Walk Again


Take Five Minutes to Make a Difference


Amputee in South Pacific <URL Redacted>

*Overview*

Micronesia is one of the most poverty-stricken nations in the developing
world. Over 2,000 islands are scattered across an ocean area the size of
the United States. Transportation between islands is limited and airfares
are very expensive. Healthcare is nearly nonexistent, and medical
diagnoses are widespread and far-reaching. Diabetes in particular is one
such prevalent condition, and many people are required to undergo painful
and life-altering amputations.


Fact: Diabetes strikes hundreds of people in Micronesia. Many are required
to undergo painful, life-altering amputations, making diabetes the primary
cause of amputations in Pacific island nations like Micronesia.


At 2ft Prosthetics (2ftprosthetics.org < <URL Redacted>>),
we are working with the primary hospitals of Micronesia to establish their
first prosthetics program. By partnering with the Ayuda Foundation,
amputees can travel from outer islands using donated *United Airlines Miles*
 to be fit with a prosthetic leg. Also medical and engineering volunteers
can travel to Micronesia using donated *United Airlines Miles* to train
local medical staff to make and fit prosthetic legs and ultimately provide
a better quality of life for these islanders.


Donate your *United Airlines Miles* now to help amputees and send
volunteers to Micronesia. Don't let your unused miles go to waste--your
contribution will help better the lives of those in need of medical care. Note
that frequent flyer mileage with Star Alliance Members (e.g. US Airways,
Luftsansa, Swiss Air, Continental, etc.) can be converted to *United
Airlines Miles*.


*Step 1: Declare.*

Ensure your miles go toward setting up the first prosthetics clinic in
Micronesia by declaring how many miles will be donated to 2ft Prosthetics.
There is a minimum donation of 500 miles (but no maximum!)


You can fill the form out online (Link to Form - Click
Here< <URL Redacted>>)
or at our blog (www.2ftprosthetics.blogspot.com). Otherwise email the
amount of miles you would like to donate to <Email Address Redacted>

You're almost done...

Fact: Micronesia is one of the world's poorest countries, ranking 187 out
of 193 on the UN GDP list
