Support World Birth Defects Day!

March 3, 2023

March 3 is World Birth Defects Day https://www.worldbirthdefectsday.org/. Children that survive birth defects suffer long-term disability, with consequences for themselves, their families, and the health care system Poverty in Cambodia plays a role in rejecting children born with disabilities. Children's Surgical Centre is proud to partner in this endeavor with support from www.smiletrain.org to correct cleft lips and palates. Our surgeons performed over 100 cleft cases for needy children in 2022.

Please consider supporting www.csc.org with a donation to support these children and others that are born with cerebral palsy, congenital cataracts, strabismus, or club foot. Or share your story with us at info@csc.org!
