Do you remember, as a child, reaching for the brass ring on a merry-go-round? The ring was hard to reach, but you knew with each turn of the carousel, there’d be another chance. Over two hundred patients in Nicaragua and Guatemala had barely touched that ring when the pandemic hit our world. Will the carousel come around again? Will the brass ring be within their grasp? For them, and our patients in the USA, that brass ring will transform their lives. It will be the surgery that will help them walk without pain again, allow them to work and take care of their families, and free them from being a burden to their communities.
This year has changed the way we perform our charitable duties, but need for help and support does not stop. Operation Walk is committed to help those who don’t have access to life changing hip and knee replacement surgery. We are working on ways to help more people that are uninsured in the USA, as well as safely travel to patients awaiting us in other countries. We need your help to get that brass ring into the hands of those that need us most.
We regret that we will be unable to have our annual gathering, but your annual donation is needed now more than ever and will be greatly appreciated. Please help Operation Walk and help us give the gift of mobility to so many in need of a new life. Donate now.
