Global HELP provides books on how to treating clubfoot and other children's problems free of charge to healthcare providers in developing countries. Look at our website global-help.or

Isn't it wonderful that children no longer need to suffer from painful, invasive surgery to have this deformity corrected? The Ponseti Method--5 casts, 3 weeks--for about $110 USD. This is now the gold-standard of clubfoot treatment throughout the world. Ponseti International--helping children walk. . .around the world. Honduras here we come!

I don't know what to say, but...it was quite heartbreaking looking at the children who couldn't receive the operation...but it's always great to see success stories and stay informed about situations such as these...wow, Aaron this is an incredible, professional documentary...keep up the awesome work:)
