It's true that CURE hospitals are hospitals - painful procedures, and difficult recoveries do happen here - but we're also hospitals where kids come alive! Where they are loved and fall in love with our staff who go out of their way to make these precious little ones feel at home! Staff like CURE Ethiopia Child Mentor Temesgen, who led an intense game of hide and seek that left the kids giggling, and for a moment, forgetting that they're even in a hospital!

Kidus, whose name in Amharic (ቅዱስ) means "holy," was born with a cleft lip and palate. It was a surprise to his family, but his mom, Mekdes, knew her son was a gift from God. A gift for her to love and protect. Thankfully, a local health clinic was able to diagnose Kidus' cleft lip and refer him to CURE Ethiopia , where he receives two surgeries to correct his cleft lip and then his cleft palate!
Now that Kidus is recovered, Mekdes encourages everyone around her to "continue caring for children with disabilities, especially in rural areas, who are hidden from society because of shame and stigma!"
You can partner with strong families like Mekdes and Kidus, and provide another child with access to a life-transforming surgery by joining the Smile Challenge: www.cure.org/smile
*all CURE's cleft services are provided in strategic partnership with Smile Train

Thank you for making 2024 a record-setting year!
It took us a while to gather all the statistics (there are A LOT of them) and make sure they're correct (important) and then make it look all pretty for you (you're worth the extra work), but we did, and here it is!
