Restoring Mobility and Dignity to People’s Lives: One Step at a Time

Countless people around the world are suffering from the debilitating effects of joint diseases and injuries, robbing them of their mobility, independence, and dignity. However, amidst the shadows of despair, a beacon of hope shines brightly: Operation Walk and the Manitoba Team.

Mission to Nicaragua 2024

Operation Walk is not just an organization; it’s a lifeline for those who have lost the ability to walk freely, play with their children, or simply perform daily tasks without pain. Our mission is simple yet profound: to provide life-changing joint replacement surgeries to underserved communities, empowering individuals to reclaim their lives and dreams.

The Manitoba team of 64 health professionals, the majority of whom are from Concordia, is led by Dr. David Hedden, Concordia’s Medical Director and Orthopedic Surgeon. The team is comprised of a passionate group of nurses, MDR technicians, physiotherapists, surgeons, interpreters, and administrative volunteers who will travel to Nicaragua in November for their 12th mission.

We can’t do it alone. We need the community’s support to continue this vital work and extend our healing touch to those in need. Operation Walk Manitoba depends entirely on private donations. There is no government support, and they depend on support from friends, families, and corporate donations.
