So, with the help of Brian Fountaine, Teresa Hayes and John Griffin, lead prosthetist at Orthopedic Rehabilitation Systems at the hospital, people are able to donate unused prosthetics. The donated limbs will be refurbished and distributed to help improve the quality of life for amputees.
Brian took the initiative and led the way to make this his project a reality, and without any fanfare (though the local news station did catch him as we we’re sneaking out the backdoor while they were covering another thoughtful donor’s story) was able to collect more than $10,000 dollars worth of artifical limbs, sockets andknee joints to donate for this month’s Veteran Training mission. We are honored to have him as a friend & teammate and proud to be associated with his efforts.
If you know of anyone interested in donating an unused prosthetic limb… you can contact us here at info@veterantraining.org or if you would like to more about our non-profit programs through Veterans in Service, please follow our link found at the bottom of the page .

* A little known fact is the 82nd Airborne has kept paratroopers in year-long rotations in Haiti for more than a decade to help in hospitals and food bank distribution centers. An area of experience we here at Veteran Training know first-hand have heard about in stories from numerous Medics, Soldiers, and Marines over there.
