T.H.A.I. (Through Healing All Indigent) Children is an organization founded by Andrew Jacono, a freshman in Manhasset High School, which was created to help children in third world countries who are less fortunate and unable to afford medical care for their facial deformities. These include cleft lip and palate birth defects and other facial disfigurements (Congenital Hemangiomas, Microtia, Hemifacial Microsomia, etc.)
To help them, our goal is to raise money for surgical supplies and equipment necessary for medical mission trips. All Funds are used for supplies and none are used to pay for travel expenses for professionals or support staff to these locations.
Working in partnership with Healing the Children Foundation, T.H.A.I. children holds dear the value of joy through philanthropy. When the money is raised, the journey begins.
A team of surgeons venture to the countries with supplies to give aid to hundreds of children that will be treated while on the trip. Smiles and self-esteem will be restored, restoring each child’s self-esteem. T.H.A.I. Children hopes to garner your support so that you too can make a difference, one person at a time, in this case one smile at a time. |
