Through our various programs, we support ill and physically challenged children, providing critical treatment they might otherwise not receive. The Red Thread Promise funds medical care, hospitalizations and surgeries; supports mobility solutions for non-ambulatory children; supplies clinics and orphanages with medical equipment, medication and other necessities; and supports clean water and food initiatives, as well as many other things.

Every decision we make starts with one foundational question: HOW CAN WE HELP IMPROVE THIS YOUNG PERSON'S STATE OF HEALTH SO HE OR SHE CAN GROW UP AS WELL AS POSSIBLE IN SPITE OF LIVING IN THE POOREST COUNTRY IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE?
