Children like Jeslin are waiting for your help.
Jeslin, 6 months
Twice, Jeslin was turned away from Operation Smile medical missions in Nicaragua because she was too sick for surgery. Our volunteer medical teams must return to help her get the surgery she needs to be able to eat, drink and grow up healthy.
Katerin, 18 months
It's been hard for Katerin to eat or drink since she was born. As a result, she's chronically sick and underweight. On her scheduled suergery day, we had to turn her away because she had an infection. But we promised to return.
Enrique, 9 months
When Enrique came to our medical mission in Nicaragua, our hearts melted. He is so precious! But we couldn't perform surgery on this sweet boy because he was sick. Please help us return to save him from a life of pain.
Our medical volunteers provide young patients with quality care so they can live healthy and productive lives.
We work with local medical staff in some of the world's poorest places.
With support from friends like you, Operation Smile has changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of children.
