About P.E.N. Foundation
Our Mission
At P.E.N. Foundation, our mission is to connect patients with the mobility equipment so desperately needed to live safely. Patients deserve to focus on joyful living with the assistance of mobility devices. Our mission seeks to place equipment no longer needed with those who do need it. Keeping equipment out of landfills and attics so others can thrive – that’s our goal!
Our Programs
Our focus is clear – we want those who need mobility equipment to get it. Most families affected by Inclusion Body Myositis have a collection of mobility devices in their homes, no longer in use. Let’s connect and share with those who need it. Unsure of which devices would be useful at this phase? We’ll connect you with educational resources first, and our equipment network, next.
Our Impact
- Assisting families battling IBM – The right device can be priceless to a patient and family in need, preventing falls and preserving daily routines.
- Protecting the environment – Reuse the viable mobility equipment currently available.
- Expanding the network of support for those battling the most aggressive and debilitating form of myositis. We are here to help.
It is our privilege to be the mobility equipment resource for you and your care team.
