One Step Forward. . .
Actually, many steps forward for the patients from Turkana. There were six total, but one was just a repair. The five patients below all received new legs for the first time since their amputations. Mike, the second man from the left, was especially happy telling us...
HOPE Fund

Mfangano Island, There & Back

Project ElevenFive provides prosthetic care to amputees in areas around the world that don’t have access to this kind of specialized help. This ministry began in 2010 as a dream in the hearts of the founders, Steve and Danée Morel. In 2016, they opened the first clinic in Cochabamba, Bolivia, Filadelfia Center for Prosthetics, in partnership with a local church. Believing that holistic care is best, this ministry not only attends to the physical needs of each patient, but also the spiritual needs, by pointing each patient to Christ.
Seeking to make the efforts of this ministry sustainable, we train and equip nationals in this field of specialized care, giving local ownership to our partners. In 2019, Steve and Danée began exploring opportunities to expand the ministry to Africa, and are now focused on the country of Kenya, where the need for prosthetic care is also great.
