Operation Footprint

$23,000

This grant will allow us to sponsor a medical team for a week-long surgical trip at San Felipe Hospital in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The surgical care provided is focused on repairing neglected club foot deformities in the indigent children in Honduras. "Operation Footprint" has a goal to provide 35-45 surgeries for 30-35 children during this week of surgery. Now in our sixth year of providing these surgeries, these efforts have assisted over 200 children who are now walking for the first time in their lives.
