Surgeons Of Hope
www.surgeonsofhope.orgWe are founding partners of Surgeons of Hope Foundation, an international charity which provides life-saving and life-altering surgery to underprivilaged children around the world. Surgeons of Hope brings the finest surgeons from Europe and the Americas to such countries as Cambodia, Colombia, Afghanistan, and Mozambique, where they perform every kind of surgery from open-heart operations to correcting cleft palates, totally altering the lives of the children they serve. A key component of their program is "Training to Cure". This aspect of the program teaches local doctors the skilled techniques of the visiting surgeons as well as providing them with the most advanced and sophisticated equipment. The hope is that these facilities will became self-sufficient in time and will eventually be autonomous agencies allowing Surgeons of Hope to move on to other needy areas, leaving behind a fully operating surgical facility which will continue to offer free surgery to children in need.
The Executive Director of Surgeons of Hope Foundation is Philippe H. L. Lerch. To learn more about him and the organization we so enthusiastically support, click on the Surgeons of Hope logo below.
