Ability Prosthetics & Orthotics Inc. recently announced the
recipient of its 2010 Joseph Mazur Housing Scholarship. The award was presented
to Danny Freund, a graduate of The Pennsylvania State University and resident
of Hopewell, NJ as part of the grand opening celebration of Ability’s
York, Pa. patient care center. Freund is currently enrolled in the prosthetics
program at Northwestern University in Chicago, from which he will graduate in
June.
Prior to attending Northwestern University, Freund spent time as a
patient model for Otto Bock HealthCare. He has been recognized for designing,
patenting and licensing an innovative medical product. Freund has demonstrated
customer service excellence and has achieved consistently high performance
goals while maintaining a high degree of integrity and compassion for people in
both the professional positions he has held and the affiliations he keeps.
“It is my pleasure to present Danny with the scholarship that bears
my grandfather’s name,” Jeffrey Brandt, CPO and founder of Ability
Prosthetics & Orthotics Inc, said in a news release. “He exemplifies
all the traits and characteristics for which Joseph Mazur served his country
during WWII. Danny has an excellent foundation upon which to build his career
as a prosthetist.”
