Due to high costs and lack of availability, it is estimated that only 5% of amputees in low income countries have access to prosthetics and assistive devices. The World Health Organization cites that there are 30-40 million amputees in the developing world with the vast majority going without prosthetic assistance. This can impact people's ability to work, access education, and have full independence.
Through three years of senior design teams, Step Up Prosthetics has been able to create a low cost, in house manufacturing solution for clinics to create high quality and durable prosthetic feet.
