When Moceiwai was born with a cleft lip, his mother Loata, was heartbroken.
In her remote Fijian village, there was no access to the surgery her baby desperately needed. She felt helpless, afraid of the stares, and what the future might hold for her son.
In countries within the Pacific and parts of Asia, children with cleft conditions often wait years for surgery, if they receive it at all.
They can struggle to eat, speak clearly or attend school, and they face heartbreaking stigma in their communities.
Without surgical care, these children miss out on so much more than their smile, they miss out on a future.
Your support can send volunteer surgical teams to remote places, to deliver life-changing surgery to children like Moceiwai.
