Mission and programs · 2024

• In 2024 the organization was able to successfully complete 2 in person medical mission. More than 30 highly skilled surgical and medical staff volunteered and provided their expertise. The mission's accomplishment included 19 extremely complex lifesaving spine surgeries for a group of extremely impoverished children with no other access to medical care. The service saved a few children from paralysis, gave a child a chance to get out of a wheelchair and walk, relieved all children from severe daily pains and difficulty in taking care of their basic necessities. After the surgical care all children were able to get up, stand straight, and most are either back to or getting ready to get back to school. The surgeries of the children also freed more than 50 family members from daily and routine care giving duties for the patients and has enabled them to get more rest and have more time to earn money to assist with their extreme impoverished living conditions. Other services delivered by the organization was online screening of MRI and X-ray of patients who needed emergency care and virtually assisted and guided local surgeons to save a child from paralysis and allowed our team of surgeons to plan and arrive at the best plan of action before arrival at the service delivery site which saved a lot of planning time and allowed maximum time for the volunteers to give the medical care and recovery services. All these services were provided by extremely skilled US Surgeons for Free.

  Expenses $95,097

• Ability to virtually help with surgical interventions by allowing remote posting of x-rays and MRI's of children in desperate need of surgical intervention on our website and through the internet access of our volunteers. Through virtual guidance our team of surgical and neuromonitoring volunteers have been able to guide the lesser trained surgical staff in remote areas to help reduce further damage and serious negative medical consequences during 2023 and for future years thereby reducing serious complications of surgery.

  Expenses $3,392

• One of our accomplishments for the program service has been to move away from collecting funds via mails and tracking detail donor information by volunteers. We use a lot of social media to promote and get donation from our current donors and mainly all the medical staff who are and have been participating in these Medical Missions. Also, by using Paypal services and asking most of our donors to donate using our donate button it has saved the organization's volunteers time to focus on medical mission planning and other services that allow the organization to improve our services. We do have donors who like mailed documents showing our progress and services provided so in 2023 we did mailing of documents as well but we plan on doing that just every few years.
