This program is in support with but not limited to Tebow Cure Hospital in Lanang, Davao City which is a non-profit hospital, that caters to patients under 18 years old with most cases related to orthopedic cases (such as bowed legs, clubfoot) and cleft lip/palate.
Junior Chamber International (JCI) Davao, Inc. partners with Tebow Cure Hospital (Cure Philippines, Inc.) through this program where the goal is to raise funds for patients who would be needing orthopedic procedures, and to raise awareness about Tebow Cure Hospital’s goal and services as well as advocate anti-bullying for the community with birth defects. The aim is that when the children undergo corrective procedure for their limbs, the children would have better quality of life, grow to their maximum heigh potential and in some cases will not experience physical pain throughout their life. After going through the physical procedures, that’s where the counseling starts
JCI Davao will actively promote for the mission, vision, and values of Tebow Cure Hospital, being a non-profit private hospital where all surgeries are sponsored – meaning that the patient or the patient’s family does not pay their own hospital bills but are covered by existing or new sponsors. They are heavily reliant on government and private sector support. The organization’s goal is to let the public understand the hospital’s work inside, to organize events and promote in social media, to invite more potential individual and corporate sponsors and to advocate for inclusivity for this community.
