Hope for the Disabled (2007 -  present)

The ISR Foundation and  its partners provide prosthetic limbs tailored to the needs of the  disabled  children and adults in DPRK. We have partnered with a leading  European NGO specializing in people with disabilities and the  Korea Federation for Protection of the Disabled, which is part of  DPRK Ministry of Public Health, to provide year-around support to the  disabled. This program is inclusive of a project to custom-manufacture over  500 prosthetic limbs for the disabled growing children and adults, 2014-2015, and an institutional program to  help modernize the Hamheung Orthopedic Hospital and Rehabilitation  Center on east coast of DPRK. The onsite confirming visits and technical support  follows as usual.
