Ganesh

Ganesh is 14 years old. Despite living in a small rural village of Nepal, he dreams of becoming a doctor. Ganesh has a gentle smile that mirrors his serene and charming personality. His father never had the opportunity to know the Ganesh we know today. Unable to stand the shame of having a child born with a cleft, Ganesh's father left him and his mother.

Ganesh was destined for a life of social stigma and isolation until, when he was nearly two years old, ReSurge's Nepal surgical outreach team stepped in.
