Partner with us to expand access to musculoskeletal education

Canes is Jackson Orthopedic Foundation’s annual fundraising event, bringing together clinicians, educators, students, and supporters who share a commitment to better musculoskeletal care. Event sponsorship plays a critical role in supporting our nationally accredited education programs and scholarships, helping clinicians gain practical skills and students to explore healthcare careers.

By sponsoring Canes, you align your organization or practice with a trusted nonprofit that has spent more than two decades closing the MSK care gap through education. Sponsorship is both a visible show of support and a meaningful investment in patient care, workforce development, and community health.
Why sponsor Canes
Sponsoring Canes is a way to support Jackson Orthopedic Foundation that is both meaningful and visible. While general donations sustain our work throughout the year, Canes sponsorship allows individuals and organizations to publicly align with our mission, connect with the JOF community, and directly support education and scholarships through a shared moment of celebration and impact.

Canes sponsorship supports JOF’s core programs, including:
  • Orthopedic Primary Care (OPC)
    Nationally accredited online, in-person, and hybrid continuing education for nurse practitioners and other advanced practice providers.
  • Healthcare Immersion Program (HIP)
    A month-long summer clinical shadowing experience that introduces college students to healthcare careers and inspires future clinicians.

Every sponsor helps extend the impact of these programs, creating ripple effects that benefit clinicians, patients, and communities over time.

Sponsorship opportunities
Canes sponsorship opportunities are designed to be flexible and accessible, with a range of investment levels to fit different organizations and individuals. Past sponsorship levels have ranged from $300 to $10,000, offering options for small practices, individuals, and larger partners alike.

Sponsorship benefits may include event recognition, visibility among a professional audience, opportunities to engage with attendees, and acknowledgment across JOF communications. Specific benefits vary by level and will be shared once event details are finalized.

A partnership rooted in shared values
Canes sponsors are partners in education. They support practical learning, mentorship, and early exposure to healthcare careers, and they help ensure that financial barriers do not limit access to training.

Whether you are a clinician, healthcare organization, business, or individual supporter, sponsorship is a way to demonstrate leadership and commitment to improving care where it matters most.

Interested in sponsoring Canes?
Sponsorship details for our upcoming event will be announced once dates and plans are confirmed. In the meantime, we welcome early expressions of interest and conversations about partnership opportunities.
