The StandProud charity group, are currently the only organizations offering free orthopedic surgery, mobility enhancing equipment and physical therapy, as well as educational sponsorship to children and youth in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

We believe that:
• all physically disabled persons should have access to the orthopedic equipment they require, in order to achieve maximum possible dignity, mobility and independence.
• a healthy society is one which permits and encourages the full integration of the physically disabled into all of its normal social and economic activities.

We currently maintain brace-crafting facilities in six cities in DR Congo.
