Worldwide, 5 billion people do not have access to safe, timely and affordable surgical care and 16.9 million people die every year from surgically preventable diseases. Resurge International (the organization"), is a nonprofit public benefit corporation that inspires, trains, funds, and scales reconstructive surgical teams in low-income countries to provide life-changing care to patients with the greatest need.one of the first organizations of its kind, Resurge International has transformed the lives of children and adults through reconstructive surgical care since 1969, and has provided 138,490 surgeries to patients across the globe. (see schedule o for continuation)resurge International is one of the few organizations that provides the full scope of reconstructive surgical care to treat congenital anomalies, traumatic injuries including burns and road traffic accidents, and malignant conditions like cancers. These conditions represent approximately 30 percent of the global burden of disease three timesmore than malaria, tuberculosis, and hiv/aids combined.from july 1, 2022 through june 30, 2023, Resurge impacted 14,473 patients through the organization's training programs and 1,826 of those patients received surgeries performed by hostcountry surgeons, or surgical outreach partners, many of whom had previously benefited from Resurge International's handson surgical skills training. This cycle of training and treatment is repeated when these Resurge surgeons train othersresulting in a multiplier effect of impact. This multigenerational approach translates into long-term sustainability and allows the organization to transform more lives, strengthen more economies, and ensure equitable access to healthcare for all. By improving patients' function and appearance, and training more surgeons to provide this type of care, the organization's work gives patients the opportunity to live independent and fulfilling lives, reducing suffering and poverty.resurge International works in 18 countries across latin america, africa, and asia to build reconstructive surgical capacity where it is most needed. The organization tackles the most pressing gaps in surgical training through special programs such as the Resurge International program in africa (ripa), which launched in full this year, and the pioneering women reconstructive surgeons (pwrs) program. Resurge International maintains no political orreligious affiliations.the organization's programs are provided largely through the organization's dedicated volunteer medical professionals, who, during the year ended june 30, 2023, donated 4,229 hours of their time.the organization's International programs include:training - Resurge International builds capacity in low-income countries by training local reconstructive surgical teams in techniques that will allow them to better care for their communities. Through the organization's visiting educator and virtual training programs, we are training the next generation in reconstructive surgery and creating a multiplier effect of longterm impact. During the year ended june 30, 2023, Resurge International trained over 3,200 medical professionals through hands-on learning and virtual instruction.treatment - Resurge International provides direct surgical care for the underserved in low and middle-income countries at no cost to the patient. We provide care through visiting surgical trips and we fund the work of Resurge surgical outreach partners. These dedicated local reconstructive surgeons have all been trained and qualified by Resurge, making it possible for them to attend to those who would otherwise have no recourse. During the year ended june 30, 2023, Resurge International supported 20 permanent local medical partner programs in 11countries. Partnership - Resurge International partners with many top us academic medical institutions, as well as with hospitals and colleges around the world, including the college of surgeons of east, central, and southern africa (cosecsa) and college of anesthesiology of east, central and southern africa (canecsa).advocacy and thought leadership - Resurge International engages with governments and multilateral organizations to prioritize surgery as a cost-effective and indispensable component of health care, working with International medical societies, academia, advocacy groups, and other surgical ngos.
