Our second annual Medical Mission to the Dominican Republic was an amazing week for the patients and volunteers alike. Our doctors, anesthesiologists, nurses, admin, a photographer, and speech therapist were part of a team that successfully restored hope and provided a brighter future to 43 patients: 22 boys and 21 girls, from 6 months all the way to 31 years old; including 22 cleft lips, 23 cleft palates, 2 fistulas, 3 vomer flaps, 1 rhinoplasty, and many dental procedures.

It’s because of the teamwork of our volunteers that came from around the world (the U.S., Europe, and the Dominican Republic), that made the mission a success. And of course, donors and supporters like YOU who help us bring more smiles to children with your generous donations.

Thank you for helping make this important mission possible and giving children the chance for a healthy and productive life.
