NEW SURGERY SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
Sponsor an Orthopedic Surgery
Make a life-changing difference for a child with a condition like clubfoot, knock knees, or bowed legs.

WHY IS TREATMENT URGENT?
Without treatment, these conditions prevent kids from doing the most kid-like things: walking to church and school, running to fetch water, and playing with friends. Just as painful, their visible disability leads to isolation and exclusion.
CURE’s surgeons treat orthopedic conditions at our hospitals in Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Niger, Philippines, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

HOW DO I SPONSOR AN ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY?
With a gift of $1,500, you can change the story for a child suffering
with a condition like clubfoot, bowed legs, or knock knees.
YOU SPONSOR A SURGERY
Make a gift that provides surgical and ministry care for one or more children. It costs $1,500 to sponsor one orthopedic surgery.
WE’LL MATCH YOU WITH A CHILD IN NEED
Our donor representatives will let you know when your gift has been matched with a child awaiting surgery. This may take up to 30 days.
YOU’LL RECEIVE UPDATES
We’ll send you updates on their progress, and you can access their patient portal to send messages of encouragement.

HOW WILL MY GIFT CHANGE A LIFE?
When a generous partner like you says “yes!” to sponsoring a surgery, it can change the life of a child, a family, and even a community.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER SURGERY?
→ A child with a life-limiting disability can walk, run, and play again.
→ A child can attend school, go to church, and contribute meaningfully within their community.
→ Children and their caregivers learn about the love of Jesus at CURE, a transformation many of them carry back into their families and communities.
