He now makes charcoal to provide for his family. It&#8217;s laborious but more predictable. A lack of rains and the rising cost of fertilizer meant he had to leave farming behind.<\/p>\r\n<p>In 2016, he and his wife Bertha&#8217;s third child, <strong>Moses Jr.<\/strong>, was born with cleft. Their midwife knew they had to get him to a health centre.<\/p>\r\n\t<p>With baby in arms, they climbed on to <strong>a transport truck filled with maize<\/strong>. It&#8217;s what they could afford, and getting their son care is what mattered most.<\/p>\r\n<p>At the time, there was no Comprehensive Cleft Care centre in Zambia, so they headed for a volunteer-staffed temporary mission. When they arrived, it was bad news. <strong>Treatment wasn&#8217;t available for Moses<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<p>On to the capital &#8211; another maize truck.<\/p>\r\n<p>In Lusaka, they learned that Moses was underweight. Surgery wouldn&#8217;t be safe. Despairingly, they returned home. <strong>Their travel funds were exhausted<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<p>Six years went by. Living with an untreated cleft was challenging for Moses&#8217; health. And the entire family faced community exclusion.<\/p>\r\n\t<p><strong>Then, hope<\/strong>. A local Catholic sister had heard about the recently opened Beit-CURE Children&#8217;s Hospital. She was going to find a way to support Moses&#8217; transportation.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the road, 6 years later, <strong>again surrounded by maize<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<p>On arrival, there was positive news! The local team could provide the ongoing care he needed.<\/p>\r\n<p>The next 18 months were focused upon nutrition support, surgery, and speech therapy.<\/p>\r\n<p>These days, Moses is healthy. He goes to school. He plays soccer with his friends, and when he grows up, <strong>he wants to be a driver<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<p>His family feels they are part of the community again.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/transformingcleft.org\/annual-reports\/2025-impact-report\/give\/\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"    rel=\"noopener\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSupport the Cleft Care  Journey\r\n\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n<h1>\r\n\t\t\tFull-Circle Cleft Care:\t<\/h1>\r\n<h2>\r\n\t\t\tPowered by Local Teams\t<\/h2>\r\n\t<p><strong>Cleft is rarely treated with a single surgery<\/strong>.
