EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
FISCAL YEAR 2016
Missional Overview
esponding to Jesus’ example of healing the sick
and His call to spread the gospel, CURE champions
the cause of children in underserved countries whose
physical disabilities can be corrected or alleviated
through medical and surgical intervention. Our
teaching hospitals and pediatric specialty programs
currently operate in 29 countries, providing our staff
with unique windows of opportunity to lovingly
minister to the patients, families, and communities
we serve.
From the opening of its first hospital in 1998 through
June 30, 2016, CURE has conducted more than 3.1
million outpatient visits, performed more than
226,000 surgeries, witnessed more than 160,000
expressions of faith, and trained more than 8,100
medical professionals.
In an effort to bear more fruit for the kingdom of God,
CURE continues to grow deeper in each country
served – all while maintaining the organization’s core
values and the commitment to provide charitable
medical care to patients regardless of gender, ethnic
background, and/or religious affiliation.

usic That Heals: In an effort to invite
daily radio listeners to engage with CURE,
an ongoing campaign branded, “Music That Heals,”
was recently launched in partnership with Capitol
Christian Music Group. Each month, a new album
release is featured in our promotional spots, which
invite listeners to give a gift to CURE and receive the
album along with a promotional item. This effort
began in June with Switchfoot’s latest album, “Where
The Light Shines Through,” and artists include Hillary
Scott, Casting Crowns, Britt Nicole, David Crowder,
and Chris Tomlin. CURE is also hitting the road this
fall, raising awareness while on tour with Switchfoot,
Lauren Daigle, and David Crowder.
N
ight to Shine: In February 2016, the Tebow
CURE Hospital and CURE Kenya were among
200 locations worldwide to host Night to Shine, the
Tim Tebow Foundation’s annual prom celebration for
people with special needs. Leron Lehman, Executive
Director of the Tebow CURE Hospital, said, “There
were lots of highlights, but two of the things that
consistently got to my emotions were seeing some
of these kids walk down the red carpet with smiles
a mile wide and then seeing them totally cut loose
on the dance floor. It was just fantastic.” More

CURE KIDS
Kaye Jay was born with a severe case of bilateral clubfoot. One
day, he saw a special program on television about a boy who
had undergone surgery to correct his clubfoot condition. He
started saving his money and hoping that someday he could
have surgery, too.
Years later, thanks to a connection with one of CURE’s partner
organization, Kaye Jay learned about the Tebow CURE Hospital
in Davao City in the Philippines, and he became one of our
first patients. He now joyfully walks on two newly straightened
feet.
Cristy, Kaye Jay’s mom, says, “I can proudly say that Tebow
CURE Hospital not only helped me and my family physically
through surgery, but they helped us draw closer to God at the
same time.”

Shalom means “peace,” a name given to her because she was
born during a time of division between her mother and father’s
families. Her arrival did bring peace, but when her legs began
to bow, trouble returned.
Shalom’s mom, Stella, says, “I have been tortured by so many
people, including my close friends, due to the deformity that
my daughter had.” Stella brought Shalom to multiple hospitals,
but none were able to help until she found CURE Malawi
through a radio advertisement.
Today, as he watches his daughter walk on perfectly straight
legs, Shalom’s father, Chimwemwe says, “I need express my
gratitude to CURE. The service they offered to Shalom we could
not have managed to afford on our own. God should richly
bless you for all you have done for us.”
