Our Journey Towards Mobility and Independence
From Vision to Impact – The Legacy Prosthetics Story
Our History
The Birth of Legacy Prosthetics
Legacy Prosthetics was founded by Travis Horn with a clear and passionate mission: to restore mobility and hope to those who need it most. The Legacy Prosthetics story begins with a simple yet powerful vision: that every person, no matter their circumstances, deserves the opportunity to walk toward their dreams. Inspired by the stories of those who have lost mobility and face significant barriers to receiving prosthetics, Travis decided to take action and make a difference.
Why Do We Do This?
Worldwide, approximately 35 million amputees are unable to walk due to lack of access to care and prosthetics, according to the World Health Organization. This number reflects a critical need that Legacy Prosthetics seeks to address. People with disabilities face countless challenges, not only physical but also emotional, impacting both them and their families. Frustration, loneliness, and anxiety are common emotions that accompany a lack of mobility, limiting opportunities and quality of life for millions.
Legacy Prosthetics was born to be the answer to this need. Through medical missions in countries such as Mexico, Uganda, Nigeria, Ghana, Guatemala, and the Dominican Republic, our team provides prosthetics to those without access to them, offering not only a physical resource, but also a new opportunity to live fully.
Our Mission and Vision
Our mission is to cultivate a world where every person has the tools they need to overcome challenges and reach their full potential. We firmly believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live a full life without physical limitations. Our vision is an inclusive future where mobility and independence are accessible to everyone, regardless of where they live or their economic circumstances.
