Through our international network of medical partners, IHC provides the critical skills, financial resources and organizational foundation to care for the surgical needs of children in developing countries.

We are a nonprofit humanitarian organization linking worldwide pediatric surgical, diagnostic and preventative resources to heal critically ill children in developing countries. IHC also helps build indigenous health care capacity - saving lives now while transforming pediatric health outcomes for years to come. IHC sends pediatric surgical and diagnostic teams to our partner countries and brings complex cases for treatment to our growing network of US and international partner hospitals. Our goal is to raise the level of indigenous pediatric critical care capacity in our partner countries.
