It is not often that the opportunity for a free surgery
comes along. This week four children from Francis Gaskin Orphanage were given
that opportunity. All four kids were able to get hernias repaired by the
amazing Children’s Surgery International (CSI) medical team that is doing its
yearly outreach in Liberia this week. This is the fourth year that we have been
able to partner with CSI. Thanks to the
services that they provide, 13 children from orphanages that we serve have
received much needed surgeries FOR FREE!
The CSI team has done much more than provide free surgeries
(which would have been enough)! Each year they also visit various orphanages
with us and have provided food, medicine, soccer balls, books, dolls, shoes,
clothes and more. This week they overwhelmed us with a huge donation of clothes
that will almost entirely cover our Christmas clothes distribution this holiday
season. For all that CSI does and has given we offer a whole-hearted thank you.
*Speaking of Christmas—The Orphan Relief and Rescue Christmas bundle campaign has
already begun. For a gift of only $25 you can make Christmas special for
an orphan this year. For more information or to give a bundle (or two) check
