Individual patient care and safety are at the core of what we do. But it doesn’t stop there.

We’re working to scale our mission by focusing on the long-term sustainability and impact of our programs. We focus on building reconstructive surgical capacity where it’s needed most and training local surgeons to heal those around them.

Training one surgeon creates a substantial ripple effect that can change the world. Just one surgeon can treat 10,000 patients in their career and if they become a trainer themselves, they have the potential to transform over 400,000 lives over their lifetime. 

A gift to ReSurge is an investment in enduring, sustainable healthcare solutions.

What We Do

Training & Capacity Building

We empower surgical teams in low-income countries by providing hands-on and virtual training from our world-leading medical volunteers, creating sustainable change that gives surgeons the tools they need to transform lives.

Direct Patient Care

We provide free, direct surgical care for individuals with the greatest need by funding our local Surgical Outreach Partners, who are trained and certified to find, treat, and connect with families who need treatment the most.

Advocacy & Equity

As one of the founders in the global surgery movement, we work shoulder to shoulder with governments and multilateral organizations to make global surgery and gender equity priorities on the broader health agenda.
