About Us
LevLegacy (also known as EPLegacy) was established in 2016 as a non-profit for the purpose of meeting the needs of amputees around the world. Through various trips to El Salvador, Guatemala, and the Ivory Coast, we have realized the need to provide hope and change for the lives of the people we encounter. Amputations come as an unexpected and devastating change to one’s life, completely altering their outlook and perception of life. Most amputees internationally have no ability to access to prosthetic care or cannot even afford prosthetic care. Through the simple act of providing prosthetic care to areas of need, we can change someone’s life and change their legacy.
LevLegacy is focused on creating long lasting impact in all areas within our reach. Our partnerships and efforts have been dedicated towards creating intentional roots that will allow for a legacy change instead of short-term relief. Our core concentration efforts have been primarily in the Ivory Coast. We have since developed and installed a prosthetic laboratory and patient care center to allow us to foster a community and a legacy.
