Although we have temporarily postponed medical care and surgeries where advisable, our work has not stopped and cannot stop. While we cannot physically be with our patients, their families, and our in-country partners, we continue to follow our Christ-centered mission and core values. We are exploring new ways to help our international mission partners such as donating medical supplies and collecting funds to enable their access to COVID-19 testing.
We return to the same communities in India, Haiti, Belize, Mexico, and Zimbabwe that have come to trust and rely upon LEAP to offer ongoing care to children with otherwise unmet surgical needs and to continue care for those who require long-term medical treatment. In times of natural disaster, we also deploy surgical teams as part of a first responder effort in affected areas around the world.
Through a partnership with Medical City Children’s Hospital in Dallas, LEAP provides extensive, high-quality medical and surgical care to underserved children with such severe craniofacial issues that long-term treatment in their home countries is not feasible. We also arrange their travel to the U.S. and host families to provide a loving environment between surgeries and while they heal.
LEAP Global Missions is a Christian organization that provides specialized surgical services to underserved populations around the world. Since 1991, we’ve been called to serve others by sending surgical teams to treat children without access to appropriate medical care, bringing hope and healing in an effort to make the world a better place.
