Volunteering Oportunities

Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Health, International, International Development, Public Health

Mission: Childspring International provides life-changing surgeries for children from developing countries and as a result transforms communities. Once a child recovers from surgery he or she is given the capability of maximizing their livelihood and utility within their community. The impact that these children can make on the next generation can only be brought about by giving them the physical capability to perform at their highest potential. Pediatric surgery offers children a new outlook on life filled with future possibilities that they never imagined. These treatments go beyond the physical healing and extend into every facet of their life.

This is an incredible organization. They are able to do so much with the little that they have. Every year they change the lives of hundreds of children across the world by giving them life changing surgeries. These include heart surgeries, prosthetic limbs, and other conditions that if untreated would ruin or shorten a child's life. Childspring partners with local hospitals and doctors to perform these surgeries, and I found our donation to go a lot further. My wife and I donated $300, and that amount allowed Childspring what in needed to perform heart surgery on a 1 year old girl from Columbia. They are a smart group of people who work with local medical professionals, host families, and volunteers to change the lives of so many children very efficiently. They are great organization for volunteers, donors, or host families.

I had a great experience at Childspring as an intern. Each and every staff member here is truly dedicated to providing all that they can to the children. Working with this fantastic group of people was both comforting and inspiring. Even after my time with the organization, Childspring remains in my heart and mind and I intend on continuing my volunteer experience with them.

As an intern at Childspring International, I truly had an awesome experience each day that I would go in to work. The staff was incredibly supportive each day and always had kind words of encouragement to offer. Although there is a small staff, Childspring does an incredible job of using their resources to maximize the results in changing the lives of children all around the world. I was most impressed by everyone's sincere heart and genuine desire to help the children to the best of their ability. Volunteers, staff, supporters, and interns were all always focused on ensuring that the children were the main priority of each and every endeavor that was taken on. I would absolutely encourage any and everyone who is interested in nonprofit work to consider Childspring International!

My experience at Childspring has been a life-changing experience, and they have the most awesome staff that makes you smile even when you're down! I came here really scared to do my surgery and they were there for me to comfort me while I was away from my family and I really appreciate that. It is a really good organization, and it's awesome!
