Corrective spine surgery at no cost for 25 teens
Jamaica
Health
This project initially provides surgical care for socioeconomically disadvantaged Jamaican children with moderate to severe scoliosis. The surgery is needed before the patient is 18 to avoid permanent disfigurement and life threatening complications. We will continue to secure donated implants and use donated funds to support volunteer surgical teams of 5-10 while they are away on foreign missions. DTF aims to facilitate corrective spine surgeries for up to 25 adolescents per year through 2017.
