Clinical Sponsorship Program
Lymphatic Therapists and other health professionals are essential to lymphoedema management, yet 20 million people experience lymphoedema with limited access to even basic health-care.
You can broaden the reach of your professional services to include neglected communities in lymphatic filariasis and podoconiosis endemic areas. Demonstrate your commitment to lymphoedema everywhere by donating a small fraction of each lymphoedema treatment for a monthly tax-deductible contribution to LKN. You decide on the amount of your monthly donation.
We provide posters, brochures, and updates for your clinic to share with your clients. These materials help show them how their support allows you to help others who don't have access to the same specialist care they receive.
Clinical Sponsors are mentioned in our social posts and their clinic details are displayed on our website (coming soon).

Compression Project Working Group
A group-led initiative to create sustainable solutions for people affected by lymphoedema in low-income communities. This group is for Health Professionals committed to offering their services to a global community.
The first purpose of this group will be to initiate, develop and implement education and training in compression therapy in an LF endemic community. Read more in our blog post Doing Good or Doing Harm: The Pitfalls of Compression Therapy in Lymphoedema Management.
It is a requirement for ongoing membership that you (or your clinic) subscribe to the LKN Foundation Clinical Sponsorship Program. This requires a regular monthly subscription of $5 per month or more.
There is a $30 joining fee which gives you access to the Group for 6-months, after which you will be invited to support the work of LKN and stay in the group with a monthly subscription, or you can simply let your membership expire.
Our aim is to form a group of passionate, active and creative Therapists to bring the Compression Project into existence.
