How much does a typical surgery require from international funds?
After our partnerships, discounts, and subsidies a typical surgery costs less than $4,000 including all travel, housing, logistics, and medical costs. To avoid “hand-outs” and to promote both a personal and civic sense of ownership PLC seeks to raise more than 50% of the cash need for each surgery from local Iraqi sources including the patient’s family and local Iraqi philanthropists, businesses, and campaigns. The remaining cash needs are funded by PLC’s international donors, Buy Shoes. Save Lives. revenues, and campaigns.
