Ledy Needs a CURE

What is CUREkids and who is Ledy?

Ledy lives in Honduras and has a foot deformity, and in Honduras the sort of specialty medical care Ledy needs is scarce. There are 100 million children in the world just like Ledy who have little hope for the future.

Many can't play with their friends or go to school, and when Ledy grows up, things that we hope for like marriage or finding a job will be difficult or impossible...all because Ledy has a curable disability! But you can change Ledy's life forever.

About Ledy

Just as the hand is formed all together a one bone and separates in utero into fingers and separates parts to form a full hand, so the foot develops in the same way. There are occasions when the bones do not separate correctly, and this causes a deformed part of the body. Ledy was born with this condition in her right foot, the deformity causing her pain and difficulty with walking and other physical activities. This operation will change her life in many ways as she will go on to have a pain free with the ability to do much more than she ever has before.
