Kibru lives in Ethiopia and has clubfoot, and in Ethiopia the sort of specialty medical care Kibru needs is scarce. There are 100 million children in the world just like Kibru who have little hope for the future.Many can't play with their friends or go to school, and when Kibru grows up, things that we hope for like marriage or finding a job will be difficult or impossible...all because Kibru has a curable disability! But you can change Kibru's life forever.- You can help

About Kibru
Kibru needs clubfoot surgery on each of his feet. Despite having this disability, he is still a very happy child. He loves to run around and play, and he brings a lot of joy to his parents.
Kibru is an only child. His parents were sad when they saw that his feet were deformed, but they were determined to find healing for their son. CURE is the first hospital they've been to seeking help for Kibru.
Kibru's father is a student. He is in Grade 8, and he also provides for his family by farming. Kibru's mother stays at home.
The family is looking forward to this life-changing operation for Kibru. You can follow his journey to healing here or support him with prayer or financially. It's going to be an incredible day when this 3 year old is running around with 2 straight feet.
