Each year, UI conducts a two-week medical mission to provide reparative surgical care to indigent children born with facial deformities, primarily clefts of the lip and palate.
Uplift Internationale relies on health care professionals and others who donate their time and expertise, as well as fund 85 to 100 percent of their travel expenses.
Every donation counts — our care is provided without cost to the children or their impoverished families, and with minimal burden to the host hospitals.
The Uplift Internationale gala committee hosted an incredible evening on October 25, 2014, raising over $65,000 to continue helping children with facial deformities. More Details
