Ulticon Builders Inc., headed by Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez, politely appreciates being part once again of this milestone medical mission with the same direction of Operation Smile Philippines Foundation, Inc. amongst other sponsors. The medical mission was held on April 29 to May 04, 2018 at the Brokenshire Hospital in Davao City. It was a great privilege for Ulticon to extend assistance the second time around to conduct the reconstruction surgery program for our cleft lip and cleft palate Davao children.
The forty-eight man surgical team was made-up of plastic surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, pediatricians, dentists and supporting personnel. Gathering resources together in raising the funds needed for the operation was made possible through the partnership of Operation Smile, Ulticon Builders Inc., UCPB and Phoenix Petroleum.
This second medical mission aimed to help 120 children and young adults with cleft lip and cleft palate disabilities. Roberto Manzano, the country director of Development for Operation Smile – Philippines said, “The treatment of cleft lips and palates makes a difference in terms of acceptance in the community. Oral cleft conditions impact the life of the people, especially children because of self-esteem issues and other negative outcomes such as bullying. These, lead others to dropout of school and grow into adulthood uneducated. It has been a challenge to Operation Smile to give the poor access to safe surgery and provide treatment to each new case.”
On that note, Mr. Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez firmly believes that in order to be able to achieve greater things we must simply do a series of small things first. In our small way of providing a helping hand and showing that we care for our children, especially those in need, gives them a fighting chance of having a better future and success in life. And in return they will have the natural sense of paying it forward. We have to sow love in order to teach them how to give love. We may think that children are too young to remember but no one will ever forget if you have truly touched their hearts.
