I have been a supporter of SpineHope for 3 years and have been consistently impressed with the organization's dedication. The organization has provided us with essential resources and guidance, helping us to navigate the challenges of living with a disability. The staff at SpineHope are incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate. They have always been there to answer our questions and provide us with emotional and financial support and they are always willing to go the extra mile to help those in need. They have also helped us to connect with other families who are facing similar challenges, which has been invaluable. SpineHope has truly been a life-changing organization for my daughter and to our family. We are grateful for the support and encouragement that we have received, and we know that SpineHope will continue to make a difference in the lives of people with spinal problems. They also provides us essential services such as counseling, financial assistance and peer support which can make a world of difference in the lives of those who are struggling to cope with their problems on spine. I highly recommend SpineHope to anyone who is looking for support and resources related to spinal problems. SpineHope is truly a deserving nonprofit organization .
Spinehope is undoubtedly the most remarkable nonprofit organization I've ever had the privilege to encounter. In a world where genuinely compassionate individuals and organizations can sometimes be hard to come by, Spinehope stands out as a shining example of unwavering dedication to making a positive impact. Their mission to assist children around the globe, including me, has left an indelible mark on my heart.
During my time with Spinehope, I was profoundly touched by the extraordinary kindness and selflessness of the individuals who make up this organization. It's rare to find people who are not only willing but eager to offer their support without expecting anything in return. Spinehope's commitment to improving the lives of children facing spinal conditions is truly inspirational.
I can't express how grateful I am to have crossed paths with Spinehope. Their support has been a beacon of hope in my life, and I cherish the opportunity to be part of such a compassionate community. As I reflect on my experience, I can't help but look forward to the day when I might have the privilege to give back by becoming a member of this incredible organization. I dream of being able to extend the same lifeline of hope and assistance to countless other children who, like me, have found solace in the caring embrace of Spinehope.
I've had an amazing experience volunteering with SpineHope. SpineHope's mission to expand spine treatment, education, and support for children around the world is inspiring, and all the individuals at SpineHope truly care about making a difference in every child's life.
My name is Arleth, I was the first patient to travel to get my surgery,
I didn´t have to pay for anything. They change my life for completely. And i´m so gratefull with them because they give me hope and now I can continue with a normal life.
Today we are grateful to Spine Hope, for such an important mission of intervening in children and young people so that they have a normal life and can achieve their dreams!!!
SpineHope is an incredible nonprofit that is truly transforming the lives of children living with spinal disorders. Not only does SpineHope provide spinal treatment and surgery for children from disadvantaged countries at no cost to their families, but they are also educating and equipping international healthcare providers with the training and protocol for spinal surgeries. I have seen first hand the impact SpineHope has on their patients and families; they restore hope and inspiration to children who face debilitating spinal conditions. I am proud to be a volunteer for SpineHope and spread awareness for children dealing with various spine conditions.
SpineHope nonprofit does amazing work!
I look forward to seeing all that the future holds for this nonprofit.
My experience with Spine Hope has been a truly remarkable one. As the administrative staff responsible for facilitating the travel of a patient who was diagnosed with Scoliosis, I can honestly testify that from the commencement of the process to the post surgical care it was seamless - Spine Hope's representatives (doctors, nurses, attorney, admin) have all been patient, kind, detailed and professional. The patient's quality of life has significantly improved thanks to Spine Hope. This organisation continues to change lives one child at a time!
The day when we received the good news about the approval of my daughter's spine surgery last year & she underwent to a successful surgical operation last feb 23, 2023 in Dell's Children hospital we we're over the moon. Spinehope does everything & made all these possible, from the very start during our stay in Austin they made sure of my daughter's welfare & comfort. Medical evaluations, x-rays, mri's laboratory test everything has no cost at all. The doctor's/surgeons & all the medical team & volunteers are truly amazing. Dr Geck is one the best surgeon ever & the Executive Director Dawn Deakin has a great heart of helping children with spine deformities. Spinehope is one of best Charity non profit organization who never get tired of reaching out the children around the world with spine deformities. God bless you all Spinehope team & the kindhearted donors/sponsors.

From the assessment to delivery, it was excellent. Helping people get the best care they need without stress.
My niece had a successful surgery through their intervention without any Fanical involvement.
SpineHope made it possible for my daughter to have her Scoliosis Surgery
My daughter was diagnosed of Scoliosis in 2020. After the diagnosis she used recommended exercises and bracing and the curve got reduced but increased drastically as she tend to grow.The increased curve size above 45 degrees compromised the level of oxygen to her lungs making her require urgent Surgery. However, the cost of the surgery was so high and this made us seek for help as we tried saving towards it.Fortunately for us SpineHope came to our rescue.They took over all the processes of my daughter's surgery in the United States without asking for anything in return. I am forever grateful They ensured to use the best hospitals and the best Medical teams/Surgeons in providing excellent services centered on patients safety.
I give them all m
y stars.
I was particularly thrilled when my friend,Mr Nworu told me about spine hope who helped his 14yo daughter, Prisca undergo a successful surgery at no COST starting from flight ticket, accommodation and other Xrays and tests.
I have since then submitted my daughter's profile (who currently suffers from Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis) and i'm also hopeful that spinehope will do the same for my daughter.
With Spinehope, everything is simply the best.
Spinehope has actually touched my daughter's life and offered her hope to live free of pains as a result of scoliosis.
It wasn't long i wrote them seeking for help for my daughter Prisca with idiopathic scoliosis who requires a spinal fusion surgery. I got response and later on, an approval for all expenses paid trip for surgery in Austin Texas Dell Children Hospital.
The helped in all the processes on getting visa from Nigeria to USA.
Spinehope has truly touch and changed the life of my daughter.
I am eternally greatful to Spinehope for this great opportunity and wonderful act of kindness.
This organization is absolutely amazing. It has given me so much joy to be able to help this organization bring to light what they are all about. The things they do really are making a difference in the lives of the youth of this world. Literally! Their ability to reach out internationally and help kids who may otherwise not get the treatment they need is something that truly warms the heart and provides inspiration. I can honestly say that I will continue to support this organization and promote its cause! Thank you, Dawn, and all the people and teams for making these things possible for such innocent and fragile lives!
Been 3 years for today. Sometimes it's still hard for me to believe that I got this opportunity from SpineHope. SpineHope really gave hope to the life that I always wished for and now I'm living it. 3 years free from pain, it's been amazing. There's so much I've achieved ever since the surgery, from being able to wear any type of dress to getting my studies done, being able to study for long sitting in one place to even going on hikes without having to worry about pains. Immense gratitude and thankfulness from me and my family to SpineHope and the team, Dr. Ryan Murdock, Mrs. Dawn Deakin, K2M, DCMC, RMHC and the Azarmehr law group and each and everyone who helped me. Words will never be enough to really express the gratitude I have for giving me life free from Scoliosis...
I became a volunteer of SpineHope because I want to help kids around the world.
I can see their happy faces and parents smiles after great done surgeries and this is the most touching moments.
I’m proud to be a part of changing lives nonprofit organization!!
Hi! I'm Trixia Leongas from the Philippines. My mom applied to this non profit organization SpineHope in 2019 and got approved in the same year. I got my surgery last year and it was once in a lifetime opportunity to us especially to me. I thought that I had no hope of having surgery since we don't have enough money to pay for one but thankfully SpineHope accepted my case. We traveled really far for it. They didn't leave us since day one and always make sure that we have everything we need. This organization is really indeed with hope and filled with caring, loving and funny people. Words cannot describe how thankful I am for everything.
You changed others life including mine for the better. Thank You!
I am Pamela Khemraj from Guyana. Mother of a spine hope patient (my son).
Dave was diagnosed with Socliosis and we were given an opportunity to do his surgery at Spine Hope Hospital in Texas.
In January of 2022 our journey of examinations, doctor's visit, medical testing etc began. We completed a few test and applications in Guyana and then travelled to Texas for his surgery. It was a nervous yet thrilling experience to have this major corrective surgery done for my son. Nevertheless, with well trained, experienced and detailed doctors and other medical personnel the surgery was a success. During the recovery period Dave was patient and took all the necessary steps given. We are now six months after the surgery and Dave is recovering well, he is active and has no pains.
Our family is grateful and appreciated the help of the many persons for this life changing experience.
SpineHope is an incredible organization of gifted surgeons and volunteers who have devoted years of their lives to providing life changing medical care to children. Volunteering with this group, especially Dawn, has been an honor and I look forward to keeping the momentum going!
Daveanand Khemraj 19 Years Old from Guyana. Developed an 74 degrees scoliosis and was told by a doctor that I can have a life changing opportunity with spinehope organization in Texas to correct my spine and be normal again. After thinking about that opportunity,I’ve had a few words with my parents and decided to go ahead with my progress because my school friend had came out successful after his surgery. On January 31st 2022 a date I’ll Always remember, I completed my successful surgery with no regrets and now pain free with knowledge to share with persons in-need. Thank you spinehope for this amazing dream.
My name is Princess Persaud.Last year I got surgery for scoliosis with the help of this organization (Spinehope).Where I am from, there are no equipments for anyone to undergo surgery to correct their spine. This organization with the help of others have made it possible for me to live a happy and healthier life. I still can't believe the journey I have been through and the time that flew by .If I could have the chance I would go back in time to experience that journey again.
Spinehope is truly a loving and caring organization changing lives of children with spinal deformities that cause them tremendous discomfort, pain and health complications. The team of doctors and medical specialists along with the staff at Dell Children’s Medical Center and Ronald McDonald House who donate their time, skills, and knowledge to help these patients is beyond amazing. Dawn Deakin who oversees this organization is truly an exceptional woman with the biggest heart you can imagine. She cares for these families above and beyond any expectation. The impact Spinehope has, and will continue to have, is a blessing.
SpineHope is a wonderful and beautiful organization filled with persons that are loving, caring and kind hearted,they have saved so many lives and mine also was saved and forever I'm grateful for that. ❤
SpineHope is a benevolent, caring, supportive, very efficient and productive charity. They have proven to be unbiased and do not discriminate. Their work is grounded in love for humanity. I am grateful to have benifited from this charity and to have met the wonderful people who sacrifices so much for the benefit of others.Thanks
Hi! I'm Suharshi Dabrera from Sri Lanka. I was a patient of SpineHope's U.S. Hub program in 2016.
I had a very severe case of scoliosis for almost 5 years. Fortunately my dad came across with SpineHope's website and managed to reach out to them.
It felt like a miracle for us to believe that I had been accepted for this program and that I'm going to get the best treatments in the world to fix my scoliosis. I was blessed to meet such wonderful, kind and generous people who looked after me really well from the beginning to the very end in the entire process. They had everything planned even before my arrival and always made sure to check up on my progress even after I had gone back home.
SpineHope is a very legit and secure non-profit organization that reaches out and help kids all around the world who are in need of medical treatments for various cases of spinal cord deformities. As someone who actually went through it all, I consider them as the best in the world! Thank you SpineHope..!
Well basically this non profit organization is really a good thing because it organized for purposes other than generating profit..... It helps alot with my parents income. It motivates us and encourage us that we are not alone, this organization helps us throughout our situation without any finance involved.
I am proud to be a part of the SpineHope team of volunteers. I have seen the the passion and purpose expand each time a young teen or child is given this life changing surgery. In many countries these adolescents with scoliosis spine deformity do not have access to the surgical talent and resources needed to help them, and their families must watch as the pain increases and the spine deformity progresses. SpineHope identifies the children in the most need. They work closely and compassionately with their family and local doctors. I have seen over many years how hard this small team of warriors works and how fiscally responsible they are with what is available. I highly recommend this organization.
Wonderful days.
It is almost a year since the rebirth of happiness in our house. It was on October 16 that we began this wonderful journey trusting in God and in a group of people who selflessly extended their generous hand to us and provided the most excellent attentions to fulfill a dream we longed for; seeing our daughter Chantal happy and with new hopes of facing life. For years we have been talking with this foundation called Spinehope. People like Dawn Deakin, Dr. Matthew J. Geck, Anne Koncki, and their entire great team. They made us a pleasant stay and full of unforgettable moments, they taught us what is the value of solidarity, selfless dedication and love for people. Definitely, there are heroes without layers who with their work give others the great opportunity to change their lives and that is what Spinehope does. They change lives.
Ми з України! Мій син має багато складних захворювань і наш шлях до кращого стану його здоров'я важкий. З однією складною проблемою нам в Україні допомогти не могли... Але доля нас звела із надчудовою командою Spinehope , яка із задоволенням погодилася нам допомогти! Мало того, що це дуже кваліфікована допомога, так ще й дійсно для нас (пацієнтів) безкоштовно! Мого сина успішно прооперовано в Остіні, велика дяка Matthew Geck MD, Dawn Deakin та усім причетним. Ми цього не забудемо!
Навіть не уявляю, скількох зусиль коштує організувати, привезти, пролікувати та вести цих пацієнтів. Ви - диво! Здоров'я вам усім та низький уклін!
I am a recipient of Spinehope's care.
Living the life of a teen with scoliosis was not ideal, though I did not experience bullying I always felt ashamed of myself and my body. I feared looking into mirrors and regarded myself as lesser than. I felt constant aches in my back and was never able to be fully active. My life always seemed quite dismal and at many points, I assumed that all hope was lost and I would forever remain as I was with my twisted spine. The day I received my surgery and had a look at my back, was a great day. If you asked me what the weather was like, I would not remember, but if you ask what I felt when I had a look at my perfect and normal back, I can say shock. I was amazed that it could look so normal. After so many years of living with my back as it was, wearing large clothing and hiding my one true shame from the world I was a bit in disbelief. I remember looking at myself frequently in the mirror for the first few days, and after the shock wore off a bit I felt joy. I was so happy. For many looking in the mirror at themselves might seem a basic daily ritual, but for me, it always held sadness and helplessness. Spinehope gave me an opportunity to look at myself with joy, it gave me the opportunity to feel normal once again. A few months after the surgery, I had no pains and I was given the opportunity to pursue a life I would have otherwise struggled to live had my condition worsened. I finally saw and can now happily see a future for myself. Rating my experience with Spinehope, I can say that it was an amazing 11 if the limit was 10. The doctors were kind, patient and everyone from the nurses to the anesthesiologist who was a part of my surgery was all very helpful and encouraging. I had shared many concerns regarding the surgery as I was doubtful but they were reassuring, making my experience the best it could possibly be. Spinehope is a non-profit that not only brings hope but changes lives, and it did for me.
i am amazed at the difference the people in this organization make in so many critical cases. Having met some of the patients before and after their complicated procedures, the difference is profound! The results are young people who now have a brighter future and a more meaningful productive life. i recommend Spinehope without reservation
