Mission

TO BUILD, SCALE, AND SUSTAIN RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGICAL CAPACITY TO PROVIDE LIFE-CHANGING CARE TO THOSE WITH THE GREATEST NEED.

  • RESURGE INTERNATIONAL ("RESURGE OR THE ORGANIZATION") IS A NONPROFIT PUBLIC BENEFIT CORPORATION DEDICATED TO INCREASING ACCESS TO LIFE-CHANGING RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGICAL CARE IN LOW-INCOME COUNTRIES. BY TRAINING, FUNDING, AND SCALING LOCAL SURGICAL TEAMS, RESURGE HELPS CHILDREN AND ADULTS RECEIVE LIFE-CHANGING PROCEDURES THAT WOULD OTHERWISE REMAIN OUT OF REACH. MORE THAN FIVE BILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE LACK ACCESS TO SAFE, TIMELY, AND AFFORDABLE SURGICAL CARE, AND AN ESTIMATED 16.9 MILLION PEOPLE DIE EACH YEAR FROM SURGICALLY TREATABLE CONDITIONS. BEHIND THESE STATISTICS ARE CHILDREN UNABLE TO ATTEND SCHOOL BECAUSE OF UNTREATED CLEFT CONDITIONS, PARENTS UNABLE TO WORK AFTER BURNS OR TRAUMATIC INJURIES, AND INDIVIDUALS LIVING WITH PAIN, STIGMA, AND ISOLATION SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY CANNOT ACCESS BASIC SURGICAL CARE. RESURGE WORKS ACROSS 17 COUNTRIES IN LATIN AMERICA, AFRICA, AND ASIA, PARTNERING WITH HOSPITALS, UNIVERSITIES, GOVERNMENTS, AND LEADING MEDICAL INSTITUTIONS INCLUDING COSECSA AND CANECSA TO TRAIN THE NEXT GENERATION OF RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGICAL TEAMS. SINCE 1969, RESURGE HAS PROVIDED APPROXIMATELY 200,000 RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERIES AND BUILT LASTING SURGICAL CAPACITY IN COMMUNITIES WITH THE GREATEST NEED. RESURGE EVOLVED FROM PRIMARILY FUNDING SURGICAL MISSION TRIPS TO INVESTING IN THE TRAINING OF LOCAL RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGICAL TEAMS SHIFTING FROM A MODEL OF EPISODIC CARE TO ONE FOCUSED ON SUSTAINABLE, LONG-TERM IMPACT. BY EQUIPPING SURGEONS, ANESTHESIOLOGISTS, NURSES, AND MEDICAL EDUCATORS WITH ADVANCED SKILLS THEY CAN USE AND TEACH FOR DECADES, RESURGE HAS DRAMATICALLY EXPANDED ITS REACH, CREATING A MULTIPLIER EFFECT THAT BRINGS LIFE-CHANGING CARE TO FAR MORE PATIENTS AND COMMUNITIES OVER TIME. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2025, RESURGE PROGRAMS DIRECTLY IMPACTED MORE THAN 31,000 PATIENTS, INCLUDING APPROXIMATELY 1,700 SURGERIES PERFORMED BY RESURGE SURGICAL OUTREACH PARTNERS LOCAL SURGEONS TRAINED DIRECTLY THROUGH RESURGE'S HANDS-ON SURGICAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS. RESURGE ALSO TRAINED MORE THAN 8,700 MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS THROUGH IN-PERSON AND VIRTUAL INSTRUCTION DURING THE YEAR. THESE PROGRAMS NOT ONLY RESTORE FUNCTION AND APPEARANCE, BUT ALSO HELP PATIENTS RETURN TO SCHOOL, WORK, AND FAMILY LIFE REDUCING SUFFERING, STRENGTHENING COMMUNITIES, AND HELPING BREAK CYCLES OF POVERTY. RESURGE SUPPORTS 20 PERMANENT MEDICAL PARTNER PROGRAMS ACROSS 13 COUNTRIES AND PROVIDES SURGICAL CARE AT NO COST TO PATIENTS. ITS WORK IS MADE POSSIBLE IN LARGE PART THROUGH THE DEDICATION OF VOLUNTEER MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS, WHO CONTRIBUTED NEARLY 4,500 HOURS OF SERVICE DURING FISCAL YEAR 2025. THE ORGANIZATION ALSO ADVANCES SPECIALIZED INITIATIVES THAT ADDRESS CRITICAL GAPS IN SURGICAL CARE AND EDUCATION, INCLUDING THE RESURGE INTERNATIONAL PROGRAM IN AFRICA (RIPA) AND THE PIONEERING WOMEN RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGEONS (PWRS) PROGRAM. RESURGE MAINTAINS NO POLITICAL OR RELIGIOUS AFFILIATIONS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
