Help a Child in Need
Left untreated, orthopedic deformities like scoliosis (curved spine) can result in compromised heart and lung function. Apart from improving the overall health and quality of life for these children, surgical correction allows them to be accepted again in a society that shuns physical deformity. Surgeries are therefore life-changing not only physically, but also socially and emotionally. You can help! Join us.
