CURE International, Inc.

CURE envisions a world where every child living with disabilities has the opportunity to reach their full potential through God's hope and healing.

CURE seeks to establish and maintain surgical teaching hospitals, where children with correctable disabilities can receive care, at little or no cost, and where medical professionals can be trained. In addition, CURE seeks to partner with local governments and other NGOs to establish partner treatment locations where services for children with correctable disabilities can be expanded and where training can take place. Throughout the entire network, CURE seeks to also educate, inform, and provide counseling to help stigma and the effects of stigma in the communities we serve.

CURE has established and maintains 8 charity hospitals where treatment and training are able to take place, along with partnerships with local ministries of health, NGOs, and universities to expand treatment and training beyond our own centers to other partner treatment locations, now in 10 countries worldwide. Throughout our network, we also inform, educate, and counsel those who have been stigmatized because of their disability as well as the communities in which we serve to change local attitudes towards those with disabilities.

From our founding in 1996 through June 30, 2022 CURE
