Over the past 30 years, I’ve helped create and led some of the world’s best surgical charities including Smile Train, WonderWork, BurnRescue, FirstStep, 20-20-20 and Operation Smile. 1+ million miles of travel took me to refugee camps in Somalia, leper colonies in Uganda, caves in Inner Mongolia, the war-torn streets of Afghanistan and Gaza, and hundreds of slums and villages in Africa, South America and Asia. In these Godforsaken places, I witnessed hundreds of medical miracles. I’ve seen crippled children stand up and walk. Severely burned children be rebuilt and reborn. And children who were born blind, open their eyes and see their mom for the very first time.
