Mission
Operation of Hope is a medical foundation that provides primarily cleft lip, cleft palate, facial reconstructive and general reconstructive surgery to children in Latin America, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Egypt and Mongolia. We care for the needy and poor children in the following ways: 1) give medical access and economic means for this specialized medical care; 2) continue our training school for local doctors and nurses; 3) continue our educational component that has become such a vital part of our surgical care; and 4) continue to improve the working conditions and safety measures in the hospitals in which we serve.
