cure international

CURE is a non-profit organization that operates charitable hospitals and programs in 26 countries worldwide where patients experience the life-changing message of God’s love for them, receiving surgical treatment regardless of gender, religion, or ethnicity.

The children CURE serves have conditions like clubfoot, bowed legs, cleft lips, untreated burns, and hydrocephalus. Without treatment, they will have little hope for a future. Many will die from their condition.

Since 1996, CURE hospitals have performed tens of thousands of medical procedures. Most importantly, God has moved in the lives of patients, families, and communities and with more than 179,000 expressions of faith in Jesus Christ.
