Project Report | Jul 8, 2022
Creating a better future, one step at a time!

By Gabriella Mueller-Evrard | Executive Director

CoolKid Tanvi -- 2022
CoolKid Tanvi -- 2022

Thanks to the loyal support of our donors -- like you! --  Tanvi has been a patient under ALTSO's programs since she was just two years old. With a huge smile and even larger personality, Tanvi is a natural in front of the camera.

Wherever she goes you will find her dressed in the latest fashions, designed and tailor-made by her father. More often you’ll find Tanvi dancing - her favorite activity.

With consistently excellent grades and in the 90th percentile of her class, Tanvi has ambitions to become a doctor. This year, CoolKid Tanvi visited our program with GetBak in India. As you can tell from our video, Tanvi is moving forward and chasing her dreams -- one step at a time.

With your help, we will continue empowering children living with limb disabilities in the state of Gujarat in Western India with our Joshi modular prosthetic limbs and the life-changing gift of mobility. 

As you can see from Tanvi, when you give a child the chance to move you give them the excitement of entering the classroom for their first day of school, the freedom to enjoy their childhood, the tools to live self-sufficiently, and the confidence to pursue their dreams. 

That's the difference of mobility -- the difference you make.

On behalf of Tanvi and her family, thank you for investing in the future of our CoolKids with your support.
