Moving Forward Together
At Double Amputee Too! Foundation, we restore mobility, rebuild confidence, and revive hope.
ABOUT DATF
Our Story
The Double Amputee Too! Foundation was born from personal experience. After losing a leg below the knee and five toes in two surgeries, our Co-founder Charles Wattley felt called to create a ministry for amputees. Initially, he resisted, trying to return to his 40-year real estate career, but the need was undeniable.
Together with his wife Diane, they established our 501(c)(3) nonprofit inspired by Charles' journey as a double amputee. At Double Amputee, we care about healing both the heart and the body, focusing on restoring mobility because we believe movement is not only necessary but a gift.
