Grace Needs a CURE

What is CUREkids and who is Grace?

Grace lives in Kenya and has scoliosis, and in Kenya the sort of specialty medical care Grace needs is scarce. There are 100 million children in the world just like Grace who have little hope for the future.

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

About Grace

Mothers have a special way of noticing things that others would otherwise not see. When Elizabeth first noticed that her daughter had a funny walking style, even Grace had no idea there was a problem. They went to a doctor who gave her an X-ray and then told them all was well. Elizabeth was not content. She sought a second opinion from another doctor who confirmed that Grace had scoliosis, but he could do nothing about it. As any mother would, she soldiered on until she found our doctors at CURE International who could help. I’m so thankful for Elizabeth’s persistence, because now Grace is on her way to healing, hopeful to start high school in better physical health.
