SUPPORTING OUR COMMUNITIES
COMMUNITY PARTNERS
TCO ImPACT CONCUSSION TESTING
The TCO Foundation’s generous support of our ImPACT Testing program was instrumental in helping enhance the safety and well-being of our community partners through improved concussion management. Thanks to the TCO Foundation, over 30,000 ImPACT tests were provided at no cost to the local communities we serve.
UNITED HEROES LEAGUES
United Heroes League’s mission is to help military families build confidence, friendships, and engagement through sports by providing free head-to-toe sports equipment, free skill-development camps, grants to offset sports fees and tickets to pro games so the family can enjoy a night out before or after deployment.

“United Heroes League is incredibly grateful for the continued support from the Twin Cities Orthopedics Foundation. The physical and mental health of our youth has never been more important. The TCOF’s incredible support helps us positively impact substantially more of our nation’s heroes and their children across the country. As a result of the TCOF’s support, more military children are able to stay physically and mentally fit, they are able to create new friendships, and develop important life skills while getting to play the sports they love. We are truly appreciative for all that the TCOF has done and continues to do for our organization.”

COON RAPIDS HIGH SCHOOL
TCO partner Coon Rapids High School was in big need of new treatment tables for their athletic training room. The old tables were falling to pieces and had very little padding left. The application process was simple, and there was good communication with the TCO Foundation after the application was submitted.
“The request was approved, and we were able to purchase two new tables that fit our space well and provided much needed additional storage space. The new tables have improved the care our athletes have received on a daily basis and have provided value to the school. We appreciate the generous gift from the TCO Foundation”
