18 miles on foot. 12 hours by bus.
The girls and their parents made a life-changing journey in search of hope and a second chance at life.
- Vaviroa and Nambina's mother
At the medical mission, the sisters saw so many other children with clefts. For the first time they knew they were not alone. They saw a doctor, a dentist and a speech therapist. It was like nothing they'd ever experienced before.
And after three days, they received incredible news.
Both of them would receive free surgery and new smiles.
Both sisters lives were transformed, each with bright beautiful new smiles.
Vaviroa and Nambina got the new smiles they'd dreamed of, and thanks to friends like you, Vaviroa was able to start school and loves math. Nambina's spirit and smile, brighter than ever.
