About Child Foundation Charity
Child Foundation Charity is comprised of physicians, corporate executives, and volunteers. The venerated doctors on our board are affiliated with Miami Children's Hospital and Baptist Hospital, and each of them has volunteered their invaluable services to Child Foundation Charity. Operation costs are donated by our doctors to CFC children and Child Foundation Charity's goal is to help defray hospital and medical expenses incurred while treating the children that come to us for assistance. The children aided by Child Foundation Charity are 17 years old or younger, and are born with medically treatable physical birth defects. These children have no means with which to pay for medical treatment, relying solely on the compassion and goodwill of others. Children can be from outside or within the US. CFC is unique because 100% of all monies raised will be used for the children; all operational expenses are paid for by an anonymous angel donor.
