MISSIONS
Why help kids overseas?
So when a vet saves a child, the child saves the vet. It’s paramount to the veterans healing process that a direct emotional connection is made with those they help. More than one-quarter of children in war zones suffer the same PTSD symptoms as combat veterans.
How do you know they aren't linked to terrorism?
America’s safety comes first. All candidates must undergo rigorous security screenings to qualify for treatment. Even mere suspicion of an affiliation to terrorist group or activity results in disqualification. Disqualified candidates cannot re-apply for treatment, without exception.
What happens after treatment?
Child patients travel with a temporary medical visa preset to expire upon completion of medical treatment. All patients are escorted by authorize U.S. personnel to-and-from the airport and medical facility, before returning home to their families.
