Jaipur Limb Project
It’s an ongoing district project, initiated by the Club. The camps are conducted every year to provide Artificial Limbs to people who are in need of a Limb.
•WHAT IS THE JAIPUR LIMB?
It is an artificial leg, developed at the Mahaveer hospital in Jaipur , India . The unique component is the Jaipur foot, a clever combination of wood and various densities of rubber vulcanized into a realistic looking brown foot. The Jaipur limb is hard-wearing and will last for three or four years, longer if worn with a shoe. One of the major differences between the Jaipur technology and western technology is the cost - whereas a western limb will cost between $2,000.00 and $4,000.00, a Jaipur limb can be made and fitted for as little as $35.00.
•WHAT IS ROTARY DISTRICT 7510 DOING?
Since its inception in 2003 Rotary Club of Plainsboro (RCOP) along with other clubs in the Rotary District 7510 has already supported more than 1500 amputees to walk.
•PLANS FOR 2009-2010
It is our goal to “Support 1000 Disabled Leg-Less People Walk” by the end of the Rotary year. The most amazing part of the project is that $35 can make a leg less walk and deliver the gift of life.

In 2002 a few prominent people of Indian origin, living in Plainsboro, South Brunswick, North Brunswick, Edison, Franklin Park, and North New Jersey decided to charter a new Rotary Club in Central New Jersey with the intention of servicing the local and international community. The club started out with three members and rapidly grew to 19 members living in various parts of the state. Although the club is open to people of all races, color, and religion, most of the current members are people of Indian Origin.
Since its inception, the Rotary Club of Plainsboro has proudly sponsored a number of local and international charitable projects.
