We are delighted to announce our collaboration with Range of Motion Project (ROMP) and Atlas Run. ROMP is dedicated to providing high-quality prosthetic care to amputees living in Guatemala, Mexico, Ecuador and the United States. The organization works with the most vulnerable populations, empowering them through prosthetic care.
We are committed to having a positive impact on those living with limb loss. Whether it be through improving the quality of life for the wearers of our Infinite sockets or through sponsorships and donations to worthy causes, giving back to the community is a cornerstone value for LIM Innovations.
Did you know that 80% of the world’s amputees live in developing countries? Extreme poverty and a broken rehabilitation system further disable these individuals by restricting access to prosthetic care and devices. In fact, only 2% of amputees living in developing countries have access to basic prosthetic care. In other words, 78% of the world’s amputees lack basic prosthetic care. By contributing quality prosthetic care, ROMP provides the devices needed for amputees to live their best lives and to rise above their disability.
Many times, providing a basic prosthetic for one individual will create a ripple of change to empower an entire family. LIM Innovations understands the life-changing impact that arises from having access to a comfortable prosthesis. We are proud to sponsor ROMP’s mission and are excited to announce our collaboration with Atlas Run to help raise much needed funds for this life changing organization.
Atlas Run For a Cause is a mobile app where funds are pledged to a nonprofit for each mile logged. Available for free download through iTunes, Atlas Run For a Cause is an easy and fun crowdsource fundraising platform for nonprofits. With this app, exercising is not only good for your body but it helps to power an entire community as well!
LIM Innovations is proud to be a corporate sponsor for ROMP through the Atlas Run For a Cause app. When ROMP is chosen as the beneficiary, LIM Innovations is pledging to donate $0.25 for each mile logged by runners and walkers. The premise is simple. The more you move, the more you raise for those in need. There are no out of pocket charges for those using the app, yet users are empowered to make a substantial difference for the community through
exercise.
We encourage you to download the app, pick ROMP as the beneficiary and start logging your miles. Know that each mile you move helps someone struggling with limb loss to regain their quality of life through providing prosthetic care. Your moving creates a ripple that will change a life thousands of miles away.
We hope to raise $1,000 or 4000 miles. This is a community effort, so grab some friends and start logging your miles. When using the app please tag us in your photos to help build a wave of support for this movement. Together we can make a difference for amputees in need.
