I came across a remarkable NGO after reading Nicholas Kristof's piece today on acid attack victims in South Asia-Interplast. What remarkable work is being done by some of the bravest and truest heroes this world has to offer.

Their mission statement:
Since 1969, Interplast has provided free life-changing surgery for children and adults with clefts, disabling burns and hand injuries. In Africa, Asia and Latin America, Interplast empowers and trains local doctors — and creates free access to surgical care where none previously existed.
