Although The War Amps is per- haps best known for its assistance to war amputees and to children enroled in its Child Amputee (CHAMP). Program, it is also giv- ing something back to adult "civil- ian" amputees An example is Sheila Lindsey of Chatham, Ontario. Partially paral- ysed in a 1970 accident, Sheila recently developed complications that necessitated the amputation 'of both legs. When it came time lor Sheila to be fitted with artificial iitnbs,-The 'War Amps was there to cover, the percentage ofthe cost not. covered by her provincial medical tan. p Sheila wrote The War Amps to express her appreciation, saying: "Few people realize the cosi of artificial limbs, or how often . they must be revised. 1 want other people, to know what The War Amps is doing for people like me. For die first time in 19 years, I walked with crutches and then offset canes.. Who made this dream come true? Who else? The War. At llpsi As my prosthetist .says, Ilhey are always there for you' e'' • The War Amps is also able to give something back through pro- grams that ' include PLAYSAFE, SAFETY WALK, Matching Mothers, sheltered workshops, and JUMPSTART, a, new program which provides computer training to multiple -amputee children so that they, will one day have marketable job skills. The Association's tradition of "giving something back' began in 1918, when The . War Amps (then called The Amputations Association "of *The Great. Wit`) was founded as a fraternal organization to provide direction and meet the needs of amputee ' ex -servicemen returning from World War I. More 'than 70 years later, the present day War Amps organization continues the philosophy of "amputees helping amputees'', providing counselling, self-help, and practical assistance to amputees across Canada. The War Amps does not receive government funds. Its many pro- grams are made possible solely through the support of Canadians across the country. , Personalized address labels can be ordered by calling: In Toronto, (416)- 488- °600; in areas codes 416, 519, 613, and 705, call toll-free 1-800-268- $821; all other regions, call 1-800- 268-8917. three months,. commencing Sunday, December .1.
