The Garment Fund 

We are please to be able to connect a limited number of patients with an opportunity for a free garment in 2025 thanks to our generous sponsors, Medi Juzo and Sigvaris.

Patients are welcome to apply, with an LAO member Therapist or Retailer/Fitter providing the referral. 

Also, when practitioners see a patient who is in need and cannot pay for garments, they can nominate them for consideration to the Garment program. 

Things you need to know before applying:

• Open to Ontario residents only.
• Registration fee of $50 for administration, to be applied after approval.
• A patient can only apply once (lifetime).
• No replacements or returns.
• Your measurements must have been taken within the last 2 weeks.
• Ensure that your measurements are correct.
• For custom garments, only essential options are provided. I.e. silicone band, lining.
• Only one garment per patient (exceptions made for bilateral limbs).
• Must go to a Retailer/Fitter for measurements for custom garments. (professional fees may apply)
• For off the shelf garments, you must obtain the recommended brand and exact measurements and what is needed/required.
