Huge thanks to Mia, one of our incredible high school Junior Board members, and her family for putting together these amazing goodie bags filled with coloring books, crayons, and stickers! Our team in Ecuador delivered them to patients, and their faces lit up with joy! 💙

It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Richard Pedrick, our longtime Materials Manager and a cherished member of the GSF family. Our hearts go out to his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Today, we celebrate the people who give without expecting a return, who show up when no one’s watching, and whose kindness moves mountains. Volunteers aren’t just part of the story but the turning point.

Mental health matters. This May, Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re highlighting the importance of psychological support as a core part of our work. From preparing patients for surgery to helping them navigate social and emotional challenges that come with cleft conditions

A shoutout to Kristin Dodd, Kate McPhail, and Margaret Simon, for presenting Cleft Care in Developing Countries at the AORN Conference in Boston, MA, this April. Their presentation reflected years of hands-on experience and dedication as long-time volunteers with GSF

Each step in a patient’s cleft care journey carries both visible and invisible changes. Mental health support plays a critical role in this process, addressing the emotional and social impact of living with a facial difference. hubs.li/Q03lrVr90
