 6-6550 \n About LEAP: LEAP is dedicated to enhancing and enriching the liv
 es of people around the world by providing free specialized medical and su
 rgical services inspired by the love of Christ. \nFounded over 30 years ag
 o by Dr. Craig Hobar\, LEAP Global Missions volunteers have performed clos
 e to 10\,000 surgeries on patients (mostly children) from 24 countries. \n
  LEAP is committed to developing long-term relationships with our patients
 \, their communities\, and other partners involved in our missions. By ret
 urning to the same countries\, we are able to build trust\, offer ongoing
  education\, and continue caring for those who need long-term medical serv
 ices. \nDespite pandemic related challenges and travel restrictions\, LEAP
  has continued to adapt and has found ways to keep serving those in need.
  For example\, in Zimbabwe\, LEAP funded clinics for local medical profess
 ionals to perform craniofacial surgeries\; in India\, a lifesaving oxygen
  generator was purchased\; and in Belize\, funding has begun for a new hos
 pital pediatric wing. \nMost recently\, Dr. Steve Orten and Dr. Craig Hoba
 r traveled to Ukraine and helped perform surgery at two pediatric hospital
 s and a military hospital. Under the direction of Dr. Hobar\, Dr. Orten\,
  and Dr. Chris Conner\, LEAP Global Missions will soon unveil a collaborat
 ion to provide ongoing surgical support and training. \n Learn more by vis
