Prof. Ortiz Catalán conducts voluntary work at charitable foundations that you can support as well! You can donate your expertise as a volunteer or contribute donations directly to these non-profit organizations devoted to support people with disabilities and pain. In just two years, over 100,000 people in Ukraine have undergone major limb amputations due to the ongoing war. This represents a unparallel rehabilitation challenge to which you can contribute, however the sightliest, it will help!
Prometei Pain Rehabilitation Center
Located in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, Prometei is charitable foundation dedicated to treat patients with neuropathic pain, in particular, phantom limb pain (PLP). PLP is a debilitating condition common after amputation that can become a higher disability than the lost of the limb itself.
CCEOB & Tytanovi
The Center for Complex Endoprosthesis, Osseointegration, and Bionics (CCEOB), along with Tytanovi, are charitable foundations devoted to the rehabilitation of people with limb loss. Located in Kyiv, Ukraine, they provide functional (prosthetics), psychological, and pain rehabilitation to those injured by war.
Remedi Ukraine
The charitable foundation, Remedi Ukraine, supports individuals severely affected by war, such as students who lost their families and are in need of support to continue their education. Remedi Ukraine is entirely run by volunteers and supports initiatives on education, rehabilitation, and environmental conservation.
