Spinal Elements celebrated the one-year anniversary of its "Hero Allograft" launch last week.
The company donates 100 percent of the net proceeds of sales from the allograft to charities benefiting children with life-threatening medical conditions. The company reported it will have raised $250,000 by the end of this year from Hero Allograft sales. Donations have been split nationally between "Make-A-Wish" and the "St. Jude Children's Research Hospital."
The Hero Allograft consists of various configurations of human allograft tissue, including demineralized bone matrix in paste form, compressible cancellous blocks and strips and structural grafts.
Spinal Elements is the first spine device company to donate 100 percent of the profits from a product to charity.
