Starting off our year in January Dr. Roser led a team of 25 volunteers to Santa Cruz, Bolivia. During the week-long trip, the team screened 70 patients and were able to perform 56 cleft lip and palate surgeries. Along with the team Ysabella Hincapié-Gara, a speech-pathologist provided services to 114 patients. Ysabella trained 4 students to assess and treat hypernasality in patients who had undergone cleft lip and palate surgery. Healing The Children Northeast is so thankful for the continued efforts from our volunteers that make this possible.

We would like to thank everyone who was able to join us for our 21st Annual Golf Outing, held on Tuesday, June 9th, 2026, at Waccabuc Country Club, in Waccabuc, New York. ⛳

This year we were honored to recognize Doctor Maurine Heard, Anesthesiologist, for her incredible dedication to Healing the Children Northeast. Dr. Heard has travelled with HTCNE on 7 missions to Colombia, Peru and Tanzania, providing compassionate medical care to children in need since 2019.

We were also proud to honor HTCNE Director Missy Law for her outstanding service, leadership, and guidance since 1985. For more than four decades, Missy has been a driving force behind our mission, helping countless children and families receive medical care. Her unwavering commitment and dedication has made immeasurable differences in the lives of so many.

Thank you to all our golfers, donors, sponsors, and volunteers for making this another successful year. The funds raised at this annual event allow us to continue our mission in helping us change lives- one child at a time ❤️

When 8 of our volunteers went to Machu Picchu their guide asked them to make this humorous video and nobody knew why, until a few days later they received this video from him! Our hearts are warmed by the recognition of the positive impact we leave on the communities we seek to help.
