CLESF Foundation

CLESF Foundation Changing the lives of children born with lower extremity deformities so they can walk, run & dream. Run. Dream. medical mission. Every contribution counts.

The Chicago Lower Extremity Surgical Foundation was founded to provide treatment for individuals and communities in need. Through collaboration, volunteerism and goodwill, CLESF has provided new hope and opportunity for many individuals and families via the Walk. With the help of private donors, corporations and physicians from Chicago and Mexico, every year CLESF conducts medical mission work to

perform pro-bono surgical procedures on children and adults with lower extremity deformities and conditions. The cost to provide care for just one patient, including the surgical facility and equipment, hospital stays, meals, medication and nursing care can cost thousands of dollars. For most of these individuals, without the support of CLESF, the alternative is often amputation. With the gracious support of individuals like you, CLESF is able to undertake necessary and complex deformity correction procedures for children. The surgical procedures are performed at no cost to the patients, thanks to financial contributions like yours, as well as the surgeons’ donation of their time. By donating to CLESF, you can help to give them a chance to walk, run and dream.
