OREF & KS—A model for success

Since 1995, OREF has raised more than $540,700 through its designated giving program to support KS’
research and education agenda. Through 2010, OREF has raised more than $30 million for its partner organizations
and has itself funded, through OREF-directed contributions, $85 million in research and education to advance the
science and practice of orthopaedics.

Support KS through OREF today.
