Our Mission
The Ellen Meadows Prosthetic Hand Foundation has been fitting hands since 2005, and we became a 501C3 Nonprofit Corporation in 2006.
We’ve distributed hands in 6 out of 7 continents.
We started distributing hands in 2005.
Through the generosity of donors like you, we work with individuals and organizations around the world to find recipients that will benefit from the LN4 hand. We have three ways we distribute hands: one-time fitting events, in-country Ambassador organizations, and responding to individual requests.
“The youngest recipient… six-year old Raza Azmat Khan from Kashmir, was wonderstruck and kept looking at his new hand.”
Some have used the LN4 hand as a placeholder while they continue to move forward on a two-year waiting list that their country’s medical system has, hoping to eventually gain a more advanced prosthetic limb. For others, this hand will be the best opportunity for regaining mobility and hand use they will ever have.
Regardless of what point in someone’s journey, we hope to help anyone who expresses a need.
