Past Missions
Changing lives forever
Mansura, Egypt
October 2019
The SVI team was able to successfully complete
12 complex laparoscopic and 27 cleft lip/cleft palate surgeries. The collaborative effort between our team of volunteers and the skilled surgeons,
anesthesiologists, nurses, residents, medical students and staff local to Mansoura made this mission a tremendous success. Our mission could not have been completed without everyone’s individual contributions.
Together, we overcame cultural differences to achieve our common goals of:
1) Providing quality care for the children .
2) Educating the local surgeons and residents.
3) Providing supplies and equipment to the hospital.
Our mission was also able to give more than
40 patients the opportunity to be seen by
Michael Seitz, DDS for dental care.
Presh Vihear,
Cambodia
February 2019
We completed 62 plastic and hand surgeries. SVI also donated $10,000 worth of orthopedic implants, and acellular dermal matrices.
Cambodia Success Story: Imagine finally being able to smile after 56 years. Phat Nheun was socially isolated most of her life. She was born with a cleft lip and palate that were never fixed because her family could not afford to do so. She never married and lived the life of a farmer. In January of 2018, she arrived at Preah Vihear hospital in the most poor province in Cambodia after hearing of a camp that would provide free surgeries. SVI was able to not only give her a smile, but also a new lease on life.
We only can continue these missions with your generosity.
