WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES
Fundraising proceeds are allocated
locally and nationally. This two-pronged approach means
that hospitals and surgical staff benefit directly from
the dollars raised in their area through equipment
purchase, continuing professional education, or other
priorities determined by our local organizing committee.
At the same time, the Canadian Orthopeadic Foundation
uses a share of the funds to support its research,
education and social policy programs.
