ICHF has conducted medical mission trips since the beginning of their work in 1993. Our trips have increased over the years so that now there are at least two ICHF Medical Teams every month repairing children’s hearts somewhere in the world. The year 2010 represents our most ambitious schedule to date. There are 35 trips on the schedule this year! With a lot of hard work, that will translate to over 600 kids operated on in 2010! Wow, that's more kids than most cardiac centers in the US operate on, in one year . Go team!
