Starting in the year 2024 we are focusing our fundraising efforts on supporting HopeForDiabetes.org. Our goal is to support several medical missions to Tonga, Samoa, and possibly other nearby countries to help fight the huge diabetic amputation and early death problem they are facing. We are helping by providing seriously needed limb salvage surgeries, diabetic wound treatments, and supporting prevention education efforts.

Because of our personal knowledge of the people who run and support HopeForDiabetes.org, we will be able to verify that every dollar raised will be used effectively and responsibly. We will be among the surgeons going on these medical missions as well. We personally guarantee that your donations and support will be used in the best possible ways. We are currently able to provide $10,000 dollars of services and medical/surgical care for every $1,000 donated. We are unaware of any organization that is so efficient and can stretch every dollar so far.

Thank you in advance for your support and donations for this new cause!

Donations can be made at ArtGivingHope.org

Do My Bunions Require Surgery?

When your big toe takes a turn and angles toward the others instead of pointing forward, you can blame a bunion — a joint deformity. Conservative treatments may help, but you may need surgery eventually. Here’s what to look for.
