Become a Fresh Start volunteer  Fresh Start provides free surgery to disadvantaged children with physical deformities





"Surgery Weekend" takes place every seven to eight weeks with coordinated volunteer support of over 100 medical and non-medical volunteers. 

During Surgery Weekend, a team of dedicated medical volunteers, including highly skilled physicians and nurses, medical technicians, and support staff donate their time and expertise to provide disadvantaged children with the highest quality medical services and on-going care.  

A typical Surgery Weekend involves approximately 10-15 major surgeries, multiple minor surgeries, laser treatments, and 25-30 multi-specialty patient evaluations. We also provide speech therapy and dental treatments. 

We invite interested volunteers to contact the Fresh Start Volunteer Coordinator, Mimi Askew at 760-448-2021 or at mimi@freshstart.org.  Surgeries are planned months in advance.  You must apply to be accepted as a patient in order to receive Fresh Start services.
