CURE in Ethiopia
The picture above is of CURE in Ethiopia. Everyone who serves with CURE in Ethiopia, from medical professionals to office staff, are dedicated to providing the highest quality medical and spiritual care to people who, without CURE, couldn't find it and couldn't afford it, just like Fraol. To do that, we're inviting you to partner with us.
We need to raise approximately $1000 to treat children like Fraol. When you give a gift through Fraol's CUREkids profile, your contribution will help us continue our work in countries like Ethiopia. Have more questions? Ask us.
Monthly Giving: Be a Hero!
When you partner with us monthly, we'll send you an email each month to introduce you to a different child who was helped because of your generosity. You can choose to follow their updates and send them get well messages. That means that each year, you're a part of helping 12 different children, beginning with Fraol. We call it being a CURE Hero!
Got it. Thanks for the explanation.

Fraol's Story

“Fraol doesn’t use his right hand that much, sometimes he uses his thump and stump to hold stuff” Fraol’s mother Yeshi explains with a concerned look on her face.
When Fraol was just a couple of months old, he accidentally put his hand in their family's cooking fire. His right hand was instantly burned. His family rushed him to the nearest medical center where he got treatment, but his burns healed in a way where the melted skin contracted his fingers into a permanent fist position. Fraol's family knows having a disabled hand can alter the entire course of Fraol's life so they immediately began searching for the specialized help needed for a condition like this. Thankfully during their search, Fraol's family came across a previous CURE Ethiopia patient and learned of the hope and healing we offer.
Fraol is here and about to start his healing journey. Since he is getting treatment at such an early age, he will not be exposed to bullying or discrimination in school or community that is often heaped upon those with disabilities. Join us in welcoming the family while they start Fraol’s healing journey!
Latest Updates
As planned, Fraol came back for a casting today. He has been doing a wonderful job with his exercises at home, and today he got his first cast. The cast will help keep his fingers straight, and we will see him again next week when he returns for another cast change!
As usual, Fraol was walking and running around before seen by Dr. Tesfaye. His hand is healing well but he still needs some more physical therapy and casting to fully extend all of his fingers. For the coming two weeks, he will continue his exercises from home and then he will get a cast when he returns. Please continue praying for this young boy!
Fraol came back for his check-up today and he is doing great! The wound from his operation is healing well and it is time to start different physical exercises. He learned the exercises from our physiotherapists and his mom Yeshi will help him practice at home. We will see the little guy in a couple of weeks when he returns for another check-up!
