Social Justice Projects: Cleft Pallet and Cleft Lip Surgery

Every child deserves the ability to smile and a chance to thrive.

In Peru, 1 out of every 500 live births will have a cleft lip and palate, and most of these children live in rural districts, far from the medical care they need.

With this life-changing surgery that takes as little as 45 minutes, we can give a boy or girl with a facial deformity a lifetime of smiles.Plus, every child we heal creates a ripple effect on the child's family, community and country.

After surgery, the child's smile becomes a reminder of God's provision.
