Help to give hope for the New Year to families like Abel's!

When a child is provided with cleft treatment, you not only change their lives, giving them a chance at a happy and hopeful future, you also touch the lives of so many others. Abel and his mother's story is just one example of the impact your donations can have. Abel's treatment now means that his mother will be able to return to school and finish her education, enabling her to provide for her family and give back to her community.
2022 Highlights

Take a look at our 2022 highlights, to see how your support helped to changes lives this year.
Abel's Story

When Abel's mother fell pregnant, she had to drop out of school, but she hoped that after his birth she would be able to return to pursue her dream of getting an education. However, when Abel was born with a cleft lip and palate, she realised that he would require additional care that would prevent her from returning to school. After hearing from a local doctor about Project Harar, Abel received the life-changing surgery he needed and his mother can now achieve her dream of going back to school
Amen's Story

Amen came to Arba Minch General hospital to receive surgery for his cleft lip, he is four months and two weeks old and came with his mother and father. The family found out about Project Harar’s programme from Facebook, his mother told us that her “husband uses the app and he saw one of the posts on Facebook and we followed up on the date of the mission. After that we travelled here so Amen can get his surgery.”

Our Impact

We have provided access to treatment for more than 8,000 patients with cleft and complex facial disfigurements since we were founded in 2001. Read more about the impact of our work.
Spotlight on Cherubism

As part of our Complex Surgical Mission, we treat patients who have very severe cases of facial disfigurement. Some of these include Noma, large facial tumours known as Ameloblastomas, Trismus (Lockjaw) and abnormal bone tissue growths such as Cherubism. This article discusses Cherubism, a rare genetic condition which has affected some of our patients.
