Cleft Exchange Day Five
“Super Ambitious Day” was Mission Accomplished! It was a day of challenges, learning and fun.
Cleft Exchange Day Four
The last days of a Cleft Mission are always the busiest! Today was a day filled with joy and laughter as many of the children who had surgery on the first day left to return to their hometowns and more children arrived to prepare for their surgeries tomorrow.
Cleft Exchange Day Three

Cleft Mission – Day 4
