Why I Move For ALTSO.
This May, I'm celebrating Mobility Awareness Month with A Leg To Stand On (ALTSO) because mobility affects everything we do and every opportunity we have.
I’ve committed to help ALTSO move 5,000 miles and raise $50,000 to help 100 CoolKids walk and roll. Will you support my campaign with a donation?
About A Leg To Stand On (ALTSO).
ALTSO provides free prosthetic limbs, orthotic devices, and appropriately fitted wheelchairs, to children with limb disabilities in the developing world whose families cannot afford care. Mobility is more than movement, it's a human right. Since 2003, ALTSO has transformed the lives of nearly 23,000 CoolKids.
Why I #MoveForALTSO.
Did you know there are 106 million children with untreated disabilities in the developing world? 9 in 10 children cannot afford treatment and, as a result, do not attend school. Mobility provides the most fundamental tools needed to break the cycle of poverty -- independence, access to education, community, and future gainful employment. See how mobility has transformed CoolKid Sopriya's life here.
How You Can Help.
Move with me or support my movements with a donation. All donations will help provide critical mobility to the most vulnerable children.
Pledge per mile: Make a contribution based on the number of miles I move
One-time donation: $25 provides a prosthetic foot; $100 a custom fit brace; $250 a Joshi prosthetic limb; $500 an appropriately fitted wheelchair

Meet Sopriya.
A CoolKid kept moving since 2011.
After Sopriya lost her leg, her mother feared she would not see her daughter walk again. We provided Sopriya with her first prosthesis; in an instant her future was changed.
We’ve supported Sopriya’s continuous care since 2011, keeping her moving and in school. Now 18, Sopriya has graduated from high school and attends university in Thailand.
Sopriya’s dream is to start her own business in Cambodia. Resilient and confident, Sopriya embodies the spirit of determination and the difference mobility makes. This is life Growing Up ALTSO -- and the difference you have when you support ALTSO. Thank you!
