Save A Leg, Save A Life Foundation

Heal2gether Partnership Program has joined forces with Save A Leg, Save A Life Foundation (SALSAL) to develop a community outreach campaign that will increase awareness of DFUs and ultimately help people who are afflicted with wounds and other complications of diabetes.

Save A Leg, Save A Life Foundation is a non-profit organization with the mission to reduce the number of lower extremity amputations and to improve the quality of life for fellow citizens who are afflicted with wounds and complications of diabetes and peripheral arterial disease.

SALSAL’s primary method of outreach is the community chapter model in which medical professionals, caregivers, and patients can gather together to learn more about medical treatments available and options to prevent amputations. For more information on SALSAL chapters, please visit their website at www.savealegsavealife.com.

As a SALSAL member, you will be able to volunteer your services to a variety of outreach events organized by SALSAL and Heal2gether including:

• Foot and glucose screenings at senior centers and health fairs
• Sponsorship of presentations about chronic wounds, PAD, and good foot care
• Placing informative articles about chronic wounds and PAD in local publications
