Go Direct to a Child Surgeon – More Child Surgeries

Donate Directly to Dr Kassahun and other Paediatric Surgeons

🩺 THE CALL

Proof of Care — Direct to a Child Surgeon

From one supporter → to one surgeon → to one child — DIRECTLY
Support a child surgeon. Save a child’s life. Transform a whole community.

Why It Matters

A one-time donation enables life-changing surgery for a child with a fixable disability — restoring dignity, mobility, and future potential.
Each surgery frees caregivers, allowing parents (especially mothers) to return to work and rebuild their family’s economic stability.
Supporting a child surgeon builds medical networks where there were none — empowering entire regions with sustainable, local care.

🌍 Why This Works Better

Faster than waiting for NGOs or government grants
Cheaper — no unnecessary admin or overhead
Cleaner — fewer hands, fewer chances for corruption
More consistent — donors see the impact monthly
Customisable — urgent cases, education, or equipment can be funded on the spot
Scalable — working surgeons become mentors, and new ones come onboard

Why Child Surgeons Are the Multipliers of Good

Tens of thousands of children helped in a single career
Jobs and clinics emerge around the work of one skilled surgeon
Infrastructure and mentorship multiply — healing today and building tomorrow

🤝 More than a One-Off: Global Harmony Through Local Healing

Supporting a child across borders reduces the cry for migration by strengthening what’s local
It fosters peace between cultures, rooted in direct human connection
It promotes a universal value: kindness — which ripples outward, enriching your own community as much as theirs

🧭 THE FRAMEWORK

WHO

Surgeons — performing child surgeries for the extreme poor
Surgical teams — nurses, anaesthetists, rehab, outreach, all who enable surgery
Supporters — people and groups championing these child surgeries

WHY

Build knowledge, skills and opportunities for those involved in child surgeries for the extreme poor
Open doors for those committed to surgical care for the poor
Increase the number and quality of surgeries for the children who need them most

WHAT

Global credibility and local trust — accreditation for surgeons, programs, and efforts
Knowledge platforms — skills databases, procedure guides, shared stories
Surgical records — before-and-after data, outcomes, and real results that drive improvement
→ All geared towards more and better surgeries

WHEN

Every day — peer support and collaboration between African surgeons
Every month — cross-continental learning with global supporters
Every conference — outreach to rehab, every phase shared and improved
→ All in service of saving more lives

WHERE

On the ground in Africa
In other under-resourced regions where children need care most
In global medical institutions, where learning flows both ways
→ Shared learning leads to stronger outcomes — everywhere

HOW

Advocacy

Lobby for training access, essential gear, observerships
Speak up at forums, write letters, host Zooms, open doors
→ Surgeons get to more

Financial Support

Pay for surgeries to be done
Not just donations — offer frequent flyer points, housing, local transport
Fund the learning and the doing
→ Surgeons do more

Moral and Emotional Support

Direct messages, human connection, recognition
Build networks of care behind each surgeon — e.g., admin, outreach, support
→ Surgeons stay strong — and more step forward

🔧 HOW PROOF OF CARE WORKS IN PRACTICE

You fund the surgeon directly each month

Use Remitly, Wise, or similar
Local currency. No middlemen. No overhead

The surgeon and outreach worker get to work

Outreach workers (via morechildsurgeries.com) identify children and manage non-medical logistics
Surgeon performs surgeries, tracks outcomes, liaises with donor and verifies bills

You (the donor) stay connected

Monthly updates: photos, case notes, receipts
Conversations about equipment, extra needs, learning and more

It’s Already Working

Over 1,000 surgeries in Tanzania already completed
A self-sufficient network is now operating without central management
Other countries can replicate this
It’s not perfect — but WOW! This scales. This sticks. This saves.

And It Changes the Surgeon’s Life

Keeps them focused, motivated, respected
Attracts future talent into child surgery
Builds pride, progress, and long-term local care systems

💡 You put the power in the hands of the smartest and most determined

These surgeons grew up poor
They fought through broken systems
And now — they save lives
They are focused on others
They just need someone to believe in them
That someone is you
