What would you do if your child was sick and didn’t have access to medical care that could save their life?
In developing countries, families are faced with this type of heartbreaking situation everyday. When our babies got sick in 2017, we had access to exceptional care Wolfson Children's Hospital. But many children around the world don’t have this blessing. |

Meet SoudaisseSoudaisse lives with his mother, Safi, in Burkina Faso. They are from a Muslim family and when they found out Soudaisse had a heart defect, they prayed to Allah for healing. When their prayers went unanswered, they took Soudaisse to a witch doctor. The scars on his stomach show the evidence of his "treatment" from the voodoo healer but this didn’t heal Soudaisse, either. He needed care that wasn't available in their country.

This summer, we are raising $22,000 to bring two children from West Africa to Jacksonville for life-saving heart treatment!
If left untreated, these children will face immense suffering and the possibility of premature death. Together, we have the opportunity to connect them to the same incredible treatment and resources our children have access to in Jacksonville. We are ready to change the lives of two children who have no other way. Join us. |

Meet FatiFati was the first Togolese child who came to Jacksonville through The Will King Foundation. She lives with her mother, Amina, in a rural village outside of Mango, Togo. They came to Jacksonville having never experienced running water, microwaves or elevators! Because of your generosity, Fati had a successful open heart surgery and returned home to her family in Togo.
