This #WorldChildrensDay, we celebrate the power of action and unity to create brighter futures for kids everywhere. Every child deserves to access the surgical and medical care needed for a healthy life, and with your support, we’re making it happen — just as our amazing team did last week in The Gambia. Together, we’re transforming lives!

That's a wrap on our first surgical training trip to The Gambia! Tremendous thanks to our volunteers who worked side by side with their Gambian colleagues, sharing skills, knowledge, and a commitment to improving pediatric surgical care. Together, we made strides in patient care and laid the foundation for future collaborations that will continue to empower local medical teams. Our team is now en route home! Stay tuned for updates and stories from this incredible mission. 🌍✈️
Fourth day of surgeries in The Gambia is complete! Tomorrow, our dedicated volunteers and Gambian colleagues will perform the final cases, check on patients, and pack up supplies before heading back to the U.S. in the evening.
Wednesday is in the books in The Gambia — Together with their Gambian colleagues, our team provided life-changing surgical care to six children. Providers at EFSTH are eager to expand their skills and build capacity to meet the surgical needs of children across the country. The momentum is strong. Go, team!
Saikou, a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, is a first-time volunteer with CSI. Originally from The Gambia, he brings more than just medical expertise to this mission. As part of our advance team, his local knowledge and fluency in Mandinka have been invaluable. With his mother still in The Gambia, Saikou’s deep connection to this community brings comfort and familiarity to the young patients receiving care this week. 🌍💙
The team's first day of surgeries has wrapped up, each one a testament to the impact that skilled, compassionate care can have — restoring hope to children and their families. Stay tuned for more updates tomorrow!
Update from The Gambia: Today, our amazing volunteer team screened patients at Edward Francis Small Teaching Hospital and completed preparations for a busy week of surgeries and hands-on training. Tomorrow, seven children—ranging from just 6 months to 12 years old—will receive life-changing surgeries, entirely free for their families.
