OREF & OTA—a model for success

Since 1995, OREF has raised more than $3.6 million through its designated giving program to
support OTA’s 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.
