Message from our president
Dear supporters and friends,
The mission of the Twin Cities Orthopedics Foundation (TCOF) is to advance musculoskeletal health through community service, orthopedic research, education, and training. Our Foundation Board members and staff are all volunteers, which allows the TCOF to directly support more of its mission while keeping overhead expenses low. We are deeply grateful for the dedication and passion of our volunteers and Board members.
Your generosity makes everything we do possible. Because of you, we are able to support meaningful community partnerships, fund impactful research, and expand educational opportunities that strengthen orthopedic care here at home and abroad. Thank you for being part of this work. To learn more or to make a fully tax-deductible gift, please visit TCOFoundation.org for stories, photos, and a simple and secure DONATE button.
We also extend our sincere gratitude to David Gesensway, MD, who served on the Foundation’s Board of Directors since its inception in 2007 and led with remarkable commitment during his seven years as President. His vision and stewardship have positioned the Foundation for continued growth and impact.
Together, we can make a lasting difference in our community and abroad.
Adam Bakker, MD
President, Twin Cities Orthopedics Foundation
