Monetary donations to the Operation Straight Spine Trust will help us to continue to provide high quality medical care to those who need it most. OSS is staffed by a dedicated group of individuals who generously donate their time and talents so that OSS can continue to fulfill its mission. Their volunteerism helps to keep our administrative costs very low so that a high percentage of your donation can be directed to where it is needed most - helping those with spinal disorders. Your donation helps to pay for the cost of equipment, supplies, medication and transportation.
