A Leg To Stand On (ALTSO)

?? ALTSO's Rocktoberfest event series in NYC and CHI raises $1 M for the second year in a row to help CoolKids walk & roll. “Thank you to the extraordinary generosity of the 20 bands who headlined the concerts, more than 30 leading finance institutions who sponsored, and our dedicated attendees. Because of your support, we will be able to serve more than 1,000 children next year, fitting them with the high-quality orthopedic care they need to access mobility and the transformative opportunities it offers. In addition to the new children we will welcome into our programs in 2025, the events’ success ensures we can provide continuous care to CoolKids like Sopriya, who has been enrolled in ALTSO's programs for over a decade, and is now the first in her family to attend university."?- Gabriella Mueller Evrard, Executive Director See event photos, impact, and submit your 2025 sponsor inquiry via the links below: ??

? This Holiday season, you can bring peace of mind to children like Athid and their families. As a baby, Athid lost his limb to an infection, leaving his mother - a newly single parent - overwhelmed with worry about how she could give him the care he needed. Because of your support, Athid’s mother no longer bears the weight of that uncertainty about his future. We're committed to providing Athid with the prosthetic care he needs, through the age of 21. She can focus on supporting her family and Athid can focus on his dream, becoming a school teacher. Athid has the curiosity, patience, and love of learning to make it happen, and a family by his side that believes in him. Donate to help 200 CoolKids like Athid walk & roll: https://bit.ly/4fJGDpL

Last month, volunteers from our New York City and Chicago offices supported the wonderful work that A Leg To Stand On (ALTSO) is doing at their annual Rocktoberfest fundraising events. For more than five years we've celebrated with ALTSO and proudly supported their mission to provide life-changing prosthetic limbs and mobility aids to children in need across the globe. The Rocktoberfest event series is something our teams look forward to each year, and has become a cornerstone of our give-back efforts.
