CURE International India Transforming lives, one step at a time. 🌟 CURE International India is dedicated to eliminating disability from Clubfoot by 2030.

Join us on our mission to help all children born with Clubfoot in India to ! πŸ’ͺ❀️ CURE International India began its service from April 2009 with a goal to eradicate disability caused by clubfoot in India and at present over 80,000 children are enrolled for free treatment in 351 designated weekly clubfoot clinics spread over all the 29 states in India. With over 150 children being born with clubfoot in India every day, the role of CURE India in establishing free clubfoot clinics is very relevant and significant. Through this initiative, CURE India aims to enlighten the public that clubfoot can be treated and neglected clubfoot leads to lifetime disability. From its inception CURE has worked primarily with government healthcare programs. This not only helps CURE India establish clubfoot clinics which provide care at no cost to families, but also allows CURE India to reach the poorest of the poor. With the partnering state governments, CURE agreed to manage weekly clubfoot clinics with the orthopedic department in government medical colleges and hospitals. In the partnership, government entities commit to assign doctors who will participate in the free clubfoot weekly clinics and ensure that the casting materials are available for the treatment. State office space is also allotted. Major roles of CURE International India in this partnership are: 1. Provide ongoing training to orthopedic surgeons on Ponseti method of Clubfoot treatment. 2. Maintain medical records for every child enrolled in the state for global research. 3. Provide Counselors who will work with parents to ensure clinic visits and check dropouts. 4. Distribute Foot Abduction Braces free of cost to every child for 4-5 years. 5. Maintain a 24Γ—7 clubfoot helpline for every state. 6. Provide State Program Manager and Coordinator. Please call 8800020501 for partnership with CURE India. Please visit www.clubfootindia.in to find the nearest clubfoot clinic and feel free to talk to the respective state program coordinators.

Early Detection Saves a Lifetime of Movement.

A public awareness session was successfully conducted at CHC Kakori!

Our team engaged in one-to-one counselling with 100+ beneficiaries at the OPD β€” including antenatal mothers, postnatal mothers, and general patients.

The session, led by Ms Roopa William, Uttar Pradesh, covered CURE India's mission and the free clubfoot treatment available at KGMU, stressing why early identification at birth and timely referral within 0–2 months can change a child's life forever.

IEC materials were distributed, and details on the clubfoot clinic schedule, helpline number, and referral pathway were shared with all attendees.

Reaching pregnant women directly is key, it ensures early screening right at birth and helps prevent a lifelong disability that is 100% treatable if caught early.

Heartfelt thanks to the Medical Officer In-Charge, CHC Kakori, and the CRC Lucknow team for their continued support and collaboration.

When CURE India started, sincere doctors were ready, but children with clubfoot weren't coming for treatment. Overwhelmed parents had endless questions, and busy doctors lacked the time to answer.

Our solution?
Empowering dedicated women counselors.

Starting with just one or two, nearly 300 women counselors now form our backbone. They bridge the gap between families and doctors, guiding parents, distributing special shoes, and ensuring every child completes their clubfoot journey.

When a baby is born with clubfoot, parents don’t just seek treatment, they carry a heavy burden of fear, guilt, and uncertainty.

During a recent interaction from our Delhi clinic, our Founder and Director, Dr. Santosh George, witnessed this firsthand. A mother sat in tears, convinced her baby might never walk.

Our clinic counselor stepped in, not with medical terminology, but with genuine kindness. She sat down, held the mother's hand, answered every worry, and walked the parents through the Ponseti healing journey. Within moments, panic turned into hope.

At CURE India, our mission reaches far beyond casts and braces. We believe true healing begins with empathy, understanding, and the reassuring touch of a caring human heart.

Meet a five-year-old girl from Jalpaiguri, West Bengal, whose journey with clubfoot and a hip condition tested her family every step of the way but never broke their hope.

Today, she walks on her own and dreams of becoming a nurse, so she can help others the way she was helped.

Her story is proof: a child's future should never be defined by a physical impairment. With timely treatment, compassionate care, and family determination, every child can dream big.

Grateful to our CURE India counsellor for her patient guidance and unwavering support to the family throughout this journey, to Dr Anupam Saha and our healthcare team, and to this incredible family for making it possible. There are more children like her who need our support.
