THE MUSCULOSKELETAL TRANSPLANT FOUNDATION, INC. WAS INCORP- ORATED ON JANUARY 30, 1987, AS A DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA NON-PROFIT MEMBERSHIP ORGANIZATION AND IS A 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATION. THERE IS A CRITICAL NEED FOR MUSCULOSKELETAL, CARDIOVASCULAR, SKIN AND OCULAR TISSUE FOR TRANSPLANTATION. IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH MTF'S MISSION AND THESE ACTIVITIES, THE FOUNDATION MAINTAINS A DONOR RECOVERY NETWORK, CONDUCTS DONOR AWARENESS PROGRAMS FOR THE PUBLIC, DONATES BONE AND OTHER TISSUE FOR RESEARCH, PROVIDES RESEARCH GRANTS, AND OTHERWISE SUPPORTS BONE, SKIN AND CARDIOVASCULAR TISSUE TRANSPLANTATION, RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS. THE FOUNDATION'S MEMBERSHIP IS COMPRISED OF 501(C)(3) NON-PROIT ORGANIZATIONS.

BIOCON,INC., A NON-PROFIT 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATION, SERVES AS THE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF THE FOUNDATION. THE FOUNDATION IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF A NATIONWIDE DONOR RECOVERY NETWORK THAT IS BASED ON ITS AFFILIATION WITH ITS RECOVERY AND REFERRING MEMBERS. THIS NATIONAL NETWORK ALLOWS THE PUBLIC TO QUICKLY ACCESS NEEDED ALLOGRAFT TISSUE. BONE AND OTHER ALLOGRAFT TISSUE RECOVERED THROUGH THIS NETWORK IS SUBJECT TO STANDARDIZED SCREENING CRITERIA FOR DONATION ESTABLISHED BY THE FOUNDATION'S MEDICAL BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND DONATION BOARD OF TRUSTEES (DESCRIBED BELOW).
