JOIN US IN DONATING TO GIVE NEW HOPE TO PEOPLE IN NEED.
Center for Vein Restoration and Center for Vascular
Medicine have long been the leading experts in vein and
vascular patient care. Now we are extending our care and
joining forces with medi for help and Heart and Sole
Africa. Every donation will be matched by the Lakhanpal
Vein Foundation up to $20,000.
Center for Vein Restoration, Center for Vascular Medicine,
and medi have worked together to provide help through
compression therapy for patients suffering from superficial
and deep vein diseases. With the launch of Project Heart
& Sole, we are extending our partnership and shared
vision of helping patients beyond our clinic walls.
Together, we can increase our impact and bring new hope
to those who need it most.
Heart and Sole Africa (HASA) is a non-profit organization
fighting against podoconiosis in Rwanda since 2009. This
chronic tropical disease is increasingly triggered by high
concentrations of silica in the soil – especially in people
who are exposed to the silicates while barefoot for long
periods of time. At more than eleven locations throughout
the country, it provides support with education and
hygiene equipment to combat and prevent the chronic
disease.
medi for help has been working in partnership with Heart
and Sole Africa since 2022. The common goal is to gain
trust locally and to adequately educate young people and
sufferers and their families about podoconiosis. medi for
help is systematically establishing a comprehensive compression
management system in Rwanda. This
includes the appointment of a compression manager and
the expansion of a shoe workshop including training for
technical specialists on site.
