  • Mission

    We ship recycled prosthetic leg components to partner hospitals in Africa so amputees can live more independent lives.

  • Brief history

    Founded in 2014 by Tom Williams. Our flagship project is in The Gambia but we have now shipped enough components to build over 4000 prosthetic legs across 8 countries in Africa. We also offer physical and emotional rehabilitation to allow amputees to live happier and healthier lives.
