A smiling woman in the foreground leads a group of people walking on a sun-dappled path, with text overlaying the scene promoting a campaign for neurological care in West Africa.

There&rsquo;s a huge discrepancy in access to neurosurgical care in West Africa compared to much of the world. Neurosurgical care is not a luxury; it&rsquo;s a lifeline. Every day in West Africa, someone suffers a traumatic brain injury, a stroke, or a spinal injury. Without a neurosurgeon, there&rsquo;s nobody to perform the surgery that could save a life or preserve a patient&rsquo;s ability to walk, speak, or see.&nbsp;In countries like Liberia, there are just two neurosurgeons for over five million people.&nbsp; When you give to the Korle-Bu Neuroscience Foundation, you&rsquo;re not just funding equipment, missions, or training.You&rsquo;re giving a child with hydrocephalus the chance to grow up healthy. You&rsquo;re giving a young father with a brain tumor the chance to watch his kids grow. You&rsquo;re giving families hope where there was only fear.You&rsquo;re saving lives, sometimes quite literally.

We offer free health care to those who could not afford these life changing surgeries. &nbsp;You, in your quiet, thoughtful way have touched many lives with your compassion.
