Help Fund 3-Year-Old Teodora's Facial Surgery

Donation protected
Teodora is a 3-year-old girl from the European country of Moldova who was born with a large and growing birthmark on her face, also known as a congenital nevocellular nevus.

Tea will need three successive surgeries within a 15-month period to correct this congenital deformity.  Doctors in her country have said there is no treatment possible in Moldova and to look elsewhere.

Tea's parents have found Dr. Milton Waner, the world's foremost surgeon for this type of operation and the founder of the Vascular Birthmark Institute in New York , specializing in such procedures. Dr. Waner has assured the family that he can successfully remove the nevus to ensure Tea can lead a normal life.

The 3 operations are very expensive, requiring surgical teams, hospital stays, and Institute fees. Additionally, there are travel expenses (airfare and New York accommodations for Tea and her parents) for each of the 3 trips.

It is critical that we start the process now. 

As friends of Tea's family who live in the United States, we have decided to help raise money so that this beautiful child can live free from mockery, physical discrimination, and shame about being different.

Please watch our video showing how glorious and spirited this little girl is!
Once you see her, we're sure you'll join us to help Tea.

Let's make this miracle happen.

Thank you,
