2ft Prosthetics (www.2ftprosthetics.org) is needing components to help
under-served amputees in the island Kingdom of Tonga (7 AK's, 22 BK's) and
the Dominican Republic (18 AK's, 32 BK's). We have measurements for all of
these people and would be glad to share it with those interested in
donating. We are going to the Dominican Republic this October, so we are
working to gather supplies quickly.
We recently returned from helping amputees in the island Kingdom of Tonga.
See a short video of the trip <URL Redacted>. While there, we
saw 31 amputees and fit 16 prosthetic legs in Tonga. Next year we are
planning to fit at least 20 amputees.
If you have components you can donate, please email Dave Williams at

Thank you for your help!
