Africa Surgery
A WORD FROM THE FOUNDER
My name is Tom Johnson. Back in 2003 I began helping impoverished people in Sierra Leone get free medical care and surgical treatments. In 2007, I founded Africa Surgery, to continue the work as a registered non-profit entity. For about six months a year I live in Sierra Leone, working with international and local medical programs and facilities that provide diagnoses and treatment on a wide range of medical issues. When not there, I coordinate activities from Morristown, NJ, with help from some in-country assistants in Freetown and Makeni. Over the years and through the generosity of our donors, we have helped thousands of Sierra Leonians with issues ranging from simple tooth extractions to complex spinal surgeries. Navigate through this website to learn more about who we are and what we do. Thank you for visiting us.
Why Donate?
We are a unique charity. Virtually 100% of our funds are spent for the medical and surgical care of Sierra Leonean children and adult patients. Less than 1% of our revenue covers our extremely low administrative costs. In Sierra Leone, simple surgeries cost slightly over $150. No donation is too small. Every dollar counts. Africa Surgery, Inc. is a 501 (c) 3 not-for-profit. Your donations are tax-deductible in the United States.
