President’s Weekend – Official - CURE
MARCH 12-15, 2026 CARLSBAD, CA

Why President’s Weekend?

For over a decade, the president of CURE has invited friends and partners to a special weekend set apart for Christ and His children. What started as an opportunity to share ministry updates and vision has become one of CURE’s most meaningful traditions. Here is what you can expect:

Connection with
CURE Leaders

Step behind the scenes with the doctors, ministry leaders, and executives who are shaping CURE’s future.

Inspiring Plenary Sessions

You’ll love our thoughtfully developed sessions that delve into CURE’s medical, ministry, and hospital activities.

Special Guest Speakers

From trusted Bible teachers to inspiring voices in music, ministry, and medicine, you’ll hear from friends of CURE whose faith and insight will strengthen your own walk with Christ.

Dive Deeper with
Learn Labs

Join optional small-group conversations that explore how we train surgeons, walk with families, and share the love of Jesus in places often overlooked.

Experience Community

Share meals, conversations, and free time with interesting people who share your heart for healing children and proclaiming the hope of Jesus.

Time to Recharge

Explore the resort’s lush grounds and enjoy activities like golf, hiking, or pickleball—or unwind by the heated pools or with a visit to the world-class spa.

A weekend to shape the future

Join us for an exclusive event to meet CURE doctors, engage directly with leadership, and find joy in seeing children’s lives changed through Christ. Your impact will shape the future of CURE for years to come.

“This weekend recalibrates my faith and reminds me what matters.”

About CURE International

Around the world, millions of children suffer from life-limiting conditions like clubfoot, cleft lip/palate, and bowed legs—with no hope of accessing the medical care they need. We’re on a mission to restore mobility, dignity, and new life in Christ.

We are a network of eight charitable children’s hospitals throughout Africa and the Philippines that provides life-changing surgical care and intentional ministry support to children living with disabilities. Services are offered at no cost to families living in poverty and made possible by the generosity of donors worldwide.
