For over 35 years, we've been transforming lives by facilitating life saving and dignity restoring surgery for children from Oceania. When sophisticated medical treatment isn't available in their home countries, we step in to help. Through our network of dedicated volunteers, generous donors and world-class medical professionals, we give children the chance at a healthy, happy future they deserve.
We make life changing surgery possible through a simple but powerful process that brings together medical expertise, volunteer dedication and community support.
We identify children who need surgery not available in their home countries and connect them with specialist medical teams.
Our volunteers arrange flights, accomodation, hospital care and hosts so families can focus on their child's recovery.
We cover all expenses including medical costs, travel, accomodation and living expenses throughout the treatment journey.
We stay connected with families to ensure ongoing recovery and celebrate each child's transformation back home.
